I've had such an interesting afternoon visiting the River Danube exactly at the point where the fence called the Iron Curtain was erected. View attachment 52800
Note the stony path. That was the site of the Iron Curtain.

This is the monument to those who were shot trying to escape.
Tonight we are going to the ballet. It is the story of Nijinsky. It's my first ballet.

I bet you'll love it....the ballet I mean...
That Iron curtain, seemed odd when it was built, and odd when it came down. We have a bit of the Berlin Wall...our son was a student in Grrmany and borrowed a chisel and chipped a bit off. Everyone was doing it...
The ballet was superb. Very dramatic.
I'm sorry I've no further news of Helen. I'll try again tomorrow
Hmmm. I would be really extremely detoxified of food if that was the dinner every night. Not to mention really quite *windy*. Since I've probably already offended someone, I'll say no more
