>>>> Many homes are gone, I recognized some even with the changes they made.
>>>> Even the Prut isn't what it was.
>>>> I can whole heartily recomend the organizer we used in Israel. Very well organized, people that wanted to go to Banila and some other places ,the organizer got them cabs ,with reliable drivers, My Nephew from England met as in Chernowitz for the day just to see where his father was born and lived until the deportation. We to got a cab to to go to Jucika. We had a EXCELLENT guide,on the whole trip, that man was unbelievable and that was the opinion of everybody in the group, of the 39 travelers. We also had a Dr.( good idea for a group of older people) that was with us ,from the minute we got on the bus in Odessa until we departed from Kiev. Nice young man.
