Back to Gorzow and we stayed in there for the rest of our trip. I got to know my Polish relatives well.

This is an old polish style toilet and this is a trap. Literally this toilet traps poop. As you can see unlike the toilet we see nowadays, you poop on toilet not into the water. When you do that poop sticks on the surface of the toilet and no matter how many times you flash, it won't go anywhere, says Dan who visited the Polish relatives for his honeymoon less than a year ago. Luckily since Dan told us a trick which you put a piece of toilet paper on toilet so that poop will flash, I didn't have any problems. Speaking of toilet. In Poland, a lot of public bathrooms are pay-to-use. I suggest you to carry coins if you ever travel Poland. You have to pay a person who sits and waits people to poop all day long at the entrance of bathrooms.

According to Polish peeps, this car is the most popular car in Poland. It's like old style smart car. See you can see blue one behind.
Next 2 days we stayed at Jola's house who is my Polish cousin. The little girl is Marta, Jola's daughter.
Kids are sometimes funny. I made an Origami crane. All the adults were impressed but when Marta saw it, she gave me the dissatisfied look and said "Crane doesn't have such a long neck and its tail is too long too."
Even though she didn't like my crane, she does look happy with watermelon. Marta has pretty blue eyes.
At Spichlerz (Museum Lubuskie). If you look closer to this Polish coat of arms, there are 2 versions. One with crown and the other without crown. After World War II, authorities of the Polish People Republic removed crown. However, the Third Republic of Poland’s government brought it back later.
