My
relatives from Pennsylvania come to Malomice today
but it is a short-lived visit. Uncle John is driving
me to Tylawa. Watch out for those horse-drawn wagons

Day 329 — Village life
26-Jun-1972 (Mon.)
Today, I
learn a bit about village life and tending the

hand, carrying it a distance, and then hand watering
a large garden. The fresh peas and strawberrys made
up for it. Lots of photos today.

world and finds that people are friendly the world
over and that soldiers carry machine guns. And that
you can sometimes travel to the wrong town in the
wrong part of the country on steam locomotives.
