The Cemetery with the "PPSh"
Leaving Borne Sulinowo and heading towards the village of Krągi, you can come across an old civilian-military cemetery with the "PPSh". There are quite a few graves there, with Russian soldiers and their families buried after the war.
The cemetery's name comes from the monument that stands right by the entrance — a hand pointing at the sky with a red PPSh submachine gun. The cemetery is in very good condition. Set in the forest, off to the side of the road.
Walking around it, I found one grave — that of a baby just a few months old. Bogdan Kuriański rests there. He wasn't even a year old when his parents buried him — "Sleep peacefully, our dear little son".
The cemetery really makes a big impression. It's completely different from the ones I've seen so far. Silence, order and tidiness reign there.

The Old Market Square in Łódź
As tends to happen at the end of the year, a little grumbling is in order. That Łódź is a different city from all the rest, I probably no longer need to prove to anyone. Sitting in front of my computer, I realised yet another fact that sets this place apart. We have no Old Market Square!
Foggy Wanderings Around Łódź
