Going East

Black Madonna of Częstochowa, Poland

Hello dear readers, I always appreciate your time and comments, but blogging will be light (or nonexistent) over the coming weeks—as it has been in the past few days—because summer has well and truly arrived, with temperatures rising all over the old continent, with what this brings for better or for worse, depending on tastes and circumstances. In other words, it’s vacation time, time for your truly to hit the highways and the byways of Europe once again. This year it’s Eastern Europe’s turn, a part of the old continent that I haven’t explored much yet. And if it is true, as they say, that The Light Comes from the East, it’s time to right that wrong, even though, for climatic reasons, I would have preferred to go north—Norway above all other countries!—but there’s a time for everything, and the time for fjords will come, sooner or later. Have a great summer everybody, thank you for your consideration, and may God bless us all!
