Subject: [Cz-L] No more Judo at the Synagogue of... (Varna - 3919 km)
Czernowitzers...
Varna was the next stage during my ride to Istanbul. The two synagogues of Varna, the Ashkenazi and Sephardi, were nationalized. The Sephardi synagogue, around which the Jewish community was established, was used as a boxing ring for many years. The Ashkenazi synagogue was used until the beginning of the 1990 s as Judo club.

At the same time Varna was the port of registry for a small ship with a long history. It was launched as SS Xantha, but subsequently carried the names SS Soelyst, SS Sea Maid, SS Kafireus, SS Esperos, Makedoniya and finally MV Struma. We'll keep following Struma's course and her fate down to Istanbul.
