8/6 Berlin Train does not leave until 1:45 have to be out of room at 10:00 .Walked to the train station/mall to kill time 4 levels and I can not find a rest room and when I ask someone they snicker and pretend they do not speak English. As it would happen I found a special train lounge for 1st class train passengers only and my train pass is first class .Went in and sat down lady came and checked my ticket then the strangest thing happened she asked if I would like a beer or some champagne so like an idiot I ask for coffee. Then she asked if I would like something I figure it will be expensive but what the hell you only live once. So I have a cheese sandwich when I ask how much it is all free a full menu little portions but fantastic food and drink so I stayed for 2 hours and charged my laptop and was waited on hand and foot so this is how the rich live. The train comes and of course I am in first class compartment with six seats and I am the only one in there. I can not believe how smart I am! The train crosses the border and the into Poland and the whole crew changes to Poles .Even though the checked my ticket in Germany they make me take it out again and inform me the train pass is no good in Poland and I swear I can hear Germans laughing at me (bastards) so I have no ticket soon there are three train people there to explain why my pass is no good but for it will only cost 43 euros. I call this episode How I made mys elf look stupid in Poland. Then 2 polish business men with what I swear are 2 beautiful models sit down next to me and I say a thank you prayer. This is going to be fun. after about an hour I realize one of the women is speaking English with a British accent.it is 95 outside and sunny but in 1st class it is cool and air-conditioned unlike all the places I have stayed. Then the air conditioning goes out and it is like an oven. The girls start removing cloths as bead of perspiration for on there neck. And I say another thank you prayer.So they get up and leave to the dining car where it is cool after about an hour the air comes on again as we roll for through the country side that looks like Minnesota. The buildings and houses come in 2 kinds simple and colorful and commie block houses. I arrive in Warsaw about 8 pm and walk around it is a lot like an underground mall .The polish women put the Germans to shame not that I noticed. I took a cab the short distance to the hostel it is in the middle of down town on the 3rd floor of an office building and is like stepping back to a 60s hippie commune it is very laided back and the people very mellow and cheap I love it hear and decided to spend another night as I figure out how to get out of Poland the cheapest way possible and so the day ends sight seeing tomorrow Warsaw is beautiful .Know let play a little as you may of noticed I have intentionally made many spelling and grammar errors lets see who can find the most .You must be a anal orifice to play.
