October so far...



 ... in pictures!
I went to this targ, lots of times.
 

I went to the Stary Browar (old brewery, turned into a mall and art center), also several times. Fun fact: It was voted Best Shopping Center in the World in 2005 & 2008. Jealous?! 
I walked past this monument to the three Polish mathematicians who cracked the code of the Enigma machine the Germans were using before and during WWII. Eventually this allowed the British to listen to all kinds of German secrets and the Germans never knew.
I went to the 1956 museum, commemorating the Poznań uprising against communism in 1956, when  100,000 people protested, and between 56 and 78 people were killed.  Also, in the museum I accidentally turned off the lights on some guy in the bathroom. Sorry dude!!  Lesson for that day: Just because you don't speak the language, don't turn off your common sense.
I went to the top of the old castle.
And saw this crazy sculpture!
 
I went to Polish class in this building, four times so far.
... and saw this sign by the door each time.
I said hello to this guy.
And this guy. Jana Pawła II
And listened to lots of iPod. In this picture, in front of the Cathedral.
Coming soon: food!
