By Thugs! Warsaw has a river running down its middle, an unassuming and turpid ribbon of water doris with a stairstep concrete enbankment along both of its banks, where you can often find retirees fishing (only people on fixed incomes or those doris close to death would dare eat fish from the Vistula). In between the embankment and the touristy downtown on the western side of the river runs a long strip of parkland, bordered on its far edge by a big divided highway that parallels the river and is packed with traffic at all hours of the day. doris A simple, linear world - river, embankment, about a hundred yards of lawn and shrubbery, and highway. This riverside park doesn't figure much in Warsaw criminal lore. You can usually find young mothers pushing strollers along the path, nuns out for a walk, or the occasional staggering drunk, all of them signs of safety and comfort. On this particular day, I was walking along with a backpack on, muttering to myself loudly, and headed to the Old Town not half a kilometer away.
