Warsaw; Monday, 28 July, 2008

All over Warsaw are kiosk that sell tickets for the trams, busses and Metro. By virtually every stop is a kiosk. There is, however, an exception to that rule. There are no kiosk anywhere in the vicinity of the Ibis hotel I was staying in.

So instead of being able to hop on a tram down to the station, instead I had to wander all the way back to the metro station, where there was a kiosk, buy a single and get on the metro down to the centre of town, and then walk to Centraliny station.

I had, of course, left myself far to much time and arrived at the station with 40 minutes before the scheduled departure of the train.

Remarkably, the train proceeded to turn up and depart on time (well it had only come out of the depot) and so I was on my way to Poznan
