war sore
hmmmm our fish was lovely.
Supermarkets here are reallyreally great. SO cheap. Our lunch (rolls, ham, cheese and beer) was 1GBP each and dinner which was quite a hefty shop with fish, kuskus (guess whatthat is), lots of beer and vegetables came to 5GBP each.
My mum told me not to walk the EasternEuropean streets at night and now I know why. Last night on our way from the airport we got a bit lost becuase the directions for the hostel were a bit rubbish. While looking at street map a man tried to help us. He tried to give us directions but could’t so phoned the hostel and then intsited on taking us there. I don’t think Tom trusted him. I think this becuse he kept whispering I don’t trust this man. Then later he said that he thought the man had made a fake phone call and was going to lead us somewhere other than the hostel. His drunken breath made me want to barf. We got rid of him in the end but and luckily our hostel is near all the embassies which have lots of men with machine guns outside so he would have been stupid to try anything.
Tomorrow we are going to have a long lunch, look at the unknownsoldier and then in the evening at 9.45 we get in our first class cabin to lithuania. Think of me at 8.45 your time.

you say you ‘got rid’ of the helpful local. sounds like you’d have done well to listen to the advice of rick steve’s guide to packing light, as highlighted by kate; this is from her blog:
‘the list goes on but then it begins to get a little scarey:
6. mailing tube
7. small roll of duct tape
8. stain remover (to get rid of the blood stains eh Rick?)’
if you need to escape the country quickly, just try and think what james bond would do…

We had three different types of cheese picked at random, all with holes in and only one of them tasted of sick.
It took us about 5mins to get rid of him. I am saying no more.

See I told you not to wander around after dark in Eastern European countries. Don’t worry I will visit you in prison
