During the afternoon six of us rode bicycles onshore (not my mom, who has never ridden a bike)and enjoyed a really low key day in the Bulgarian town of Vidin. It was not a guided day which was a nice change of pace. We were told to visit an old fort from the 10th century and Sam was captivated by imagining himself defending the fort from the Ottoman Turks. We also biked to an old synagogue that was clearly splendid at one time, but now only weeds grow in its interior.


Tomorrow I am hopeful that I will be able to upload more photos, and write
with more coherence and complexity. The heat has only given me cliches today.

Happy Birthday Rhoda!
B., I love reading about the trip - vivid images, great photos and ah, an artist's and political activist's sensibilities.
And that "little" Sammy. Keep him away from the vino.
He needs goot food!
Much love and hugs to all,
Cousin Jacki
