06. Aug - Lodz, Poland


Lodz is famous for its main street - ye ye ye... I guess this is like 10th time here :) - and again I am walking on this street... this time just to go for a cup of good coffee.

Today we have some kind of football game going on, mostly you can see it by the presence of huge amount of riot police around the football court.

Once again they are seen in the train station, what a luck the football fans are taking the same train with me, locked in the last wagon. This means that police is everywhere in train station and then continuous chain around the last wagon of the train. Wearing helmets, riot shields and machine guns.

Traintrip goes rather smooth: only time to time somebody running in the train corridor. The train was stopped twice in the middle of nowhere by emergency break - when looked out from the window, just some screams. Of course from the direction of last wagon.

In the morning the train is already in the very South-East corner of Poland. So far that one day in the mountains my phone even SMSed me and welcomed in Ukraine, some minutes later welcomed SMS me in Slovakia. Yeah, it is pleasure to travel at the speed of SMSes :)
