Today's tour of Vilnius was lovely. It is a beautifully restored Renaissance city. Cobblestones, churches and cafes. all bright in the northern summer sunlight. The tour guide, predictably, perpetuated the charming central European myth of a prewar harmonious multicultural society. It reminded me of hearing songs from Fiddler on the Roof in a Warsaw piano bar.
Surprise! I'm not the only boomer in the group, although most students are from US and European colleges, looking for summer abroad credit. I had lunch with three Frenchwomen. Tres charmant!
Dinner!
