From the station, we found our way to our apartment after asking help a few times. Anna was waiting for us there and let us into our second floor apartment. We got a bigger apartment then they originally told us because they figured we were going to be here for 2 weeks, at least Ania and I will, so they wanted to give a kitchen so we could cook.

The apartment has 4 rooms plus the entry way: a bathroom, kitchen, and then 2 bedrooms; there are actually 8 twin sized beds in the apartment. After letting Anna out and choosing who would sleep where, we all crashed until the afternoon.

When we finally woke up later that afternoon, we walked around town a bit. We went to an info place to get a map and ask a few questions. After withdrawing money from the ATM, we walked around the main square area Rynek Głowny. Here we got some lunch, steak and kielbasa along with Polish beer. We then located a grocery store to purchase items to make for dinner.

Dinner that night was pasta with a red sauce. We also purchased some bread, yogurt, and other items needed for us to survive. We watched the movie “Mona Lisa Smile” after dinner and then went to bed.
