They had a really great Old Town in Warsaw. People don’t really talk it up, though. At least, not in English.

They have a really nice memorial and I think the guards are on duty all day and all night. Can you imagine standing at attention for 8 hours at a time? I hurt just thinking about it.

Warsaw, Poland – GenderLess
Warsaw, Poland – GenderLess
There was a lot genderless facilities on my European trip around the Baltic Sea. This left me in something of a quandry. I wasn’t sure what was OK and what was not. Most of the time it was pretty simple and I don’t remember being in a restroom with someone of the opposite gender. This one was a little different. Located at the hostel in Warsaw, it had showers as well as toilets. Needless to say, I found some gender specific facilities where I had a better idea of how things were supposed to work. However, I probably need to state that gender isn’t as sensitive an issue with regards to restrooms in Europe as it is in the U.S.
