Wonders never cease. Here I am on The Black Sea
...almost two months AFTER the games!
After last minute decisions and a comedy of errors in airports with m’dear old friend Shirley Lind, we made it to Bucharest, Romania, the Paris of the East! We had a royal look at tree lined boulevards, elegant mansions, lovely parks, dracula’s historic building, embassy row, the ‘arch d’triumph’, and orthodox churches with so many sacred icons and holy candles lighting the way for hopes and dreams of these lovely Romanian people who have suffered much in the past.
AND so many historic landmarks with heaps of ancient history along with an in-depth look at recent history as told to us by locals who lived through the 1989 revolution.
A bus ride from Bucharest to Constanta on the Black Sea where we boarded the awesome ship named Concerto with its upbeat crew and its UPBEAT PASSENGERS, (that would be us: ) AaiiiYA! It is all too much for words.

Am so glad you are having such a good time! I am envious. I was at breakfast with some friends today & they want me to join them on a river cruise on the Seine. I just may do it. It is not until 2015 so the more the merrier.
Gooo Sally! When in doubt, do it!
