This time the drummer was maximally massive, unbelievable, and the way he played...Brilliant.<br><br>The following day 11th July we saw Jaromir Nohavica-local singer from Ostrava, we just love him here but Romain doesnt understand much just OUI, OUI, OUI, OUIIIIIIIIII in the song about 3 pigs going for a trip.<br>

Stayed a night in Rybnik at Aleks house, the first polish man who picked us up. He offered us his home and hospitality for the night, once again amazing people we meet on this journey and such kind hearts! (im just writing quick entrys since its been a while and I want to write from where I am, not to menntion it would take forever, since no computers at the Rainbow)

... with 15 minutes to spare and met up with our buddy Jan at the bus station for the our last good bye's in Poland. From there it was off to Vienna on a 13 hour bus ride. Just a quick drive through the Check Republic to get to Austria, but it is yet another country that we have now visited and placed stamps in our passport.

We stopped in Roznov pod Radhostem to visit an Oppen Aair Wallachian Wooden Village Musuem. It was neat to see the traditional ways that people in this area lived - with all of the buildings made of wood. We got to see exhibits of welding metal, a saw mill, and working water wheels.

... started moving, I glanced up at a decrepit building with the words 'Orzesz Jaskowice' painted on the side. "Bingo" I said aloud! It was a poorly lit slab of concrete, but ahead I could see a couple standing by the road. I must, I was very glad when they introduced themselves as Agnes and Michael, Karola's friends!

We went to Jirka's house, to wait for two guys he knew who'd be going to Bratislava. Early-forties Jirka lived in the eastern Czech ...

... was the rooms filled with paoples hair and belongings and of course the one remining gas chamber, which had finger nail scratch marks on the walls. At the end of the day I travelled to the Salt mines in Wieliczka to see 700 years in ther making. The mines are full of underground chapels and carvings, however I think our guide made the tour as other backpackers had not enjoyed the site.

... s, aunque decidí no preocuparme y que lo que salga salga y perfecto. Y esta noche arranco para Polonia, porque el sábado tengo el matrimonio de la hermana de Kamila, la amiga que me visitó, y arranco a darle la vuelta. El viernes, entonces, fue el mal día, que suelen no ir solos... mientras hacía todas estas reservas y organizaba hostales me robaron el gorro de invierno de Pablo. Bueno, el fin de semana fue super chévere. Me fui con la ...

... machines used to move bodies one by one into the furnace. Its now covered with candles and flowers commemorate those who died. At 11 am, Andre and I went to see the English version of the movie about the footage taken by the Soviets when the camps was liberated after the war. Some graphic images of emaciated prisoners were shown. Its really sad that some of the prisoners where so weak that they needed to be carried out.
