Serbian Food and Lots of Walking

After recovering from Saturday night and riding around all day on a bus, we had a dinner through the university. If you've never eaten or had the opportunity to try Serbian cuisine, go find it now. I don't care how or what you have to do but go. It was phenomenal. Being a vegetarian in Warsaw is incredibly difficult, so I've been nibbling here and there (annie please don't kill me!). Chicken liver kabobs wrapped in bacon. I'm going to let that sink in. They also kept refilling and refilling and refilling our glasses of wine. Stuffed with food and full of wine we slowly made it back to Hera for a relatively early bedtime.

Today we had statistics and computer lab like normal (pretty boring but I actually understood the math which is very exciting). After Alex, who is from Belarus, showed us where the less expensive restaurants were. We tried a "mexican" one. It could hardly be considered mexican, but was pretty cheap and the bathroom was gorgeous. After lunch, we went on another "walk and talk". Our lecturer likes to walk around the city and then lecture us about communist history. Today we went to the university library which is part botanical garden. The roof top garden was gorgeous. Terrifying, but gorgeous. We learned all about the characteristics of communism, 300 feet above the ground on a rickety metal walkway. I have no idea what Josh, our professor, told us- I was praying that we weren't going to die the entire time we stood there. We finally returned to solid ground and class was pretty much over.

We decided it would be a really great idea to walk home instead of taking the bus. Two hours later we made it back to the hostel. On the way, we bought ice cream, found a restaurant that has a trampoline, looked at children's books, sort of broke into a church? and got really sweaty. It was interesting but needless to say we won't be doing that again. Our shopping expedition was sort of a fail but it was a very beautiful walk. And now I am probably going going to lay on the floor because its colder there and it is hot here!
