5 minutes break in noon heat. We enjoyed the best fresh made orange juice ever and (o mighty heavens!) nice message from our ex marcher Krystian (Poland). He started marching in Berlin and was commited to go to the very end but along the way his frustration considering various aspects of the march overwhelmed him. Finally he suddenly left the group. After some time he started to backbite the march with accusations of drugs dealing and betreying the cause of the project.
