I slept at 3 am and got up at 11. I bought something to eat and went to the museum.




I went to the museum, and a little babushka walked up to me with quick steps. She had some red in one of her eyes. Her face lit up. I asked for tickets, and she said they cost 4 Rubles. Then she told me I could ask her any questions. The museum is small, but the babushka is very kind. She gave me a free, private tour for 30 minutes covering the history of the city in Russian.
Polish, German, Russian, Belarussian, these are all part of the city's history.
I asked why isn't there any Lenin statues or Парка Победы here? She said there is a Lenin statue, and there is a victory square.
The city was founded in 1460, and Catherine the Great was here.
Old objects used to make fire.

And this is the present day. People go to parks and have festivals. I asked about local festivals. Babushka said they are on Sundays.

There is a Polish traveler called Konstantin who traveled up and down the river and wrote a book. I asked if I could see the book? She said it's written in Polish, but there are photos.

A lot of old money here. Money from the Soviet Union with Lenin on it. There is even money from the Russian empire.

The Zenit camera.




Half of the section was dedicated to ВОВ. There is the fascist German currency, as well as what soldiers used to drink and eat - both German and Soviet. I asked where are the soldiers from? Babushka said they are from Russia.




And here are the modern officials and athletes.

Another woman staff approached me and asked me questions. She asked me why I am here and how long I would be saying. She asked, "как вас зовут?" I said Dima, Dmitry. She asked why I learned Russian? I said I learned from YouTube and TikTok. She asked which film do I like? I said, "Москва слезам не верит", "Приключения электроника", "Мэри Поппинс". She asked why I was alone. I couldn't answer that question, I said, "никто из моих знакомых в Китае не знает русского языка." She gave me some a few postcards, they are marked 0.7 Rubles, but she gave me for free.

Then I went to the bus station and just managed to catch the bus as the door was closing. Now we are going to Molodechno. 3 Rubles. And I am in Molodechno again.


17 Rubles, train, to Lida. But right now I am calling the hostel. They told me there are places, so I am heading to Lida. This train is better than the "электричка", it's faster and cleaner.
Привет Лида.








I went into the hostel. I rented a single room for 30 Rubles, there was just me today.
I walked around for 3 hours, and it was quite boring. I got back late, and they already hung my clothes for me.
