Big Day

Today we arrived at the Slaski Urzad Wojewodzki (Silesian Regional Authority Office) to receive our residence cards. They're pretty neat but not quite as neat as the elevator in the building. I didn't take a picture as I wasn't sure if it was permitted...

Slaski Urzad Wojewodzki
   There just happens to be the darndest wooden elevator that makes a continual loop up one side of the building and down the other side and never stops. The stalls are like continual Ikea cabinets that are person sized. Alternating direction so that the "cabinets" can be ridden up on one side and down on the other. As the elevator never stops, you hop on then hop off on your desired floor.

   I'm not sure what happens if you miss the last floor and end up taking a horizontal ride as they are not enclosed. It was by far one of the most mesmerizing things I've witnessed.
