I wake up early in the morning, I did not sleep well but sheltered under the branches of the pine I have not suffered much from the cold. I’m thirsty and hungry and I drink from the bottle while controlling Pavlovo with binoculars. Strangely I do not see zombies wandering the streets.

I decide that I should not miss this opportunity and start to get close to the village. Apparently no one around. Checking every corner, checking all the houses … nothing. A rabbit walks beside me and reminds me that I have not eaten. I open my backpack to take the can of beans … I do not find … gone! Stupid! I just throw this out when I was in the forest but then I decided to explore the village. Would be useless and dangerous to go back and search for it. I could probably shoot the rabbits but would draw the attention of the zombies or bandits. I have to go north. Maybe I’ll find some animal in the forest to feed me.

I enter the forest north of Pavlovo and I go slowly because of hunger. I can not find any animals. I strive to move forward. The path becomes increasingly difficult. Finally I arrived at the edge of the forest in view of two buildings. It’s a farm!!…a barn and a pigsty…and many zombies around. I’m hungry and I can not go forward. I must eat something!.

The plan is to explore the two buildings in search of food without being seen by the zombies. I slowly approached the barn, a zombie comes up to me at very short distance. I hold my breath. He is just steps away from me. Luckily he has a damaged eye and can not see me. I am inside the barn with large open doors. If I close the doors would draw the attention of the zombies. I have to work carefully. I find some ammunition, two crossbows and bolts, a bit ‘of morphine, but nothing to eat. I go through a small door and head for the stye.

On the other side of the room I see something on the ground and a door on the right. I move cautiously. WTF only other darts. I enter the room on the right and finally find some cans of beans. Outside I hear the groans of many zombies and I decide to eat immediately, even if the place is not exactly healthy.

Now I must find a way out through dozens of zombies. I go slowly through the door but just off a zombie sees me and starts running towards me. In a few seconds many zombies are upon me. I start to run frantically towards the nearby forest, but several zombies are chasing me. I turn around and start shooting. One of them hurt my arm and started to bleed. They are all on the ground and I look around to see if more come. One zombie is approaching and I hit him in the head from a distance. Quickly I bandage the wound and head for the safety of the forest.

After a long climb, reached the top, I decide to camp and rest.
