It is so cold here!!  It snowed for the first time since we've been here two days ago.  It only snowed a couple inches but the snow is still on the ground because the sun hasn't come out and the temperature hasn't risen at all.  It is 6:30 pm right now here and 28 degrees outside (It's 73 in my dorm room though, thankfully).  We got back about an hour ago from going downtown and visiting our site for our project.  We had to take pictures and my hands were frozen, so now I'm sitting here drinking hot raspberry tea, yum.  We've been having problems figuring out the buses and what ones are the best and quickest to take.  We've gotten lost a couple times and once we were on the bus/trams for 3 hours before we got home!  Today though we got on a really quick bus.  It took us about 15-20 minutes to ride downtown when normally it takes us at least 45 min.  And, the bus wasn't as crowded as most of the other ones.  So, hopefully this bus will be a nice one to take from now on!  While we were out today, we went into a bakery on the street our site is on and it was so cute.  I got 4 little chocolate wafer type things and it was only 1 zloty (or 33 cents).  I took some pictures in the bakery, and of this little girl in there.  I'm also going to upload some pictures of downtown and a picture of all the girls from when we made it to the mall on our own and we were excited because we thought we figured out the bus system, which turned out to be wrong, because when we tried to leave the mall, our bus wasn't running anymore so we walked about 2 miles home, with our groceries.  Oh the experiences in another country!  Also, I'll put some pictures up of our school which is in an old king's castle!
