The Visit part 2

Actually the first day here was Sunday, which in Arad is a quiet day spent going to church and time to visit family and friends, so we had a lie in and then went for a walk round the village of Subcetate in bright , warm sunshine , whilst Britain was freezing. Then back home and then Pizza King for dinner. A good first day nice and relaxed.

On Tuesday I took them to see "Jackson" a market with indoor and outdoor stalls, they had heard me speak often of "Jackson" so much so it became a joke like in the song "I'm goin to Jackson"!!!!!!! Pattie, Betty and Angie bought nice handbags etc. etc. I think by the end of the trip Pattie had got 5 handbags, (they have lovely , different bags here a lot of Italian leather). Kathy came to meet us and we then called in at Keketch a place where the poor families live. I think it was an eye opener to see before you how these people live with very little assistance except of course from Kathy and a few others and of course her main concern is the children. We came back to the apartment and I did a roast pork dinner and everyone agreed that the pork here is scrumptious!!!! Yet another day of sunshine and it was 20 degrees wow!!!

Pattie must like her handbags - buying 5 ! I am glad you have had such a lovely visit with your family and friends and that they managed to see Jackson with you. I am so envious of your sunshine as we have had some snow this week as well as the rain! I hope that you sent me some sunshine home in one of Pattie's handbags!
