Accommodating Trieste
After a much longer bus ride than advertised, we made it to the port. Only the port of Trieste is clearly not used to harboring cruise ships. They hot housed us in the convention center, at least there were bathrooms. By this point, it was past dinner time. We were hungry, and the girls were exhausted but couldn't sleep with all the commotion. We lucked out and connected with a former student of mine and his family. They helped ...

De grensovergang naar het nieuwe europese land Bulgarije komende vanuit
Griekenland heeft het in zich. Zijn de Bulgaren vergeten dat ze nu bij
Europa horen en niet meer tot het oostblok?
