Maybe it was the discovery that pierogies should be a food group, and that eating well had never been so affordable or enjoyable. Maybe it was the beauty of Poland and the Ukraine. Maybe it was being reminded of loss in personal ways in Auschwitz, or finding unexpected ties to home and history in Jewish cemetaries and in Lviv. Or maybe it was simply because this was mine and Wendy's final trip together this year that made this week so vivid and emotional for us both.
Because Krakow and Lviv were truly unforgettable.
Our first night's trip to the local ER... Apart from being given wrong directions three times, finding myself wandering through the paramedics building asking for help and discovering the examining room had a padded door - all was well.
Discovering Lviv, Ukraine
