Travel to Czernowitz



If you're planning a trip to Czernowitz or surrounds, there are quite a few helpful resources on this website that you can access.  In May of 2006, some 60 odd members of this list journeyed to Czernowitz for the 2006 Czernowitz Reunion. You can read all the posts pertaining to that adventure at: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/czernowitz2006/  Czernowitz2006 was a list for participants and others interested in the "Czernowitz Reunion 2006", which was held in May of 2006 in Czernowitz, Ukraine. After the meeting was held, the list became inactive, although it persists now as an archive of messages for people who might be interested in travel to Czernowitz.

If you just want to read the 'essential' posts, most of which deal with travel and hotels, etc., Mimi Taylor has abstracted those. Go to:  http://czernowitz.ehpes.com/reunionposts/reunionposts.html  and then click on 'Travel'.

There are quite a few 'trip' reports from folks that have made the journey on their own before the reunion.  Go to: http://czernowitz.ehpes.com/stories/documents.htm   Then choose from the menu.

The 'Archives' on this website contain quite a bit of useful information about travelling to Czernowitz.  They are broken down by year.  You can sort the archives by Subject, Author, Date, Thread, etc.  Probably sorting by Subject is what you want to do, then look for items about travel, reunion, etc. These are different posts than those from the Yahoo group above.  Go to  http://czernowitz.ehpes.com/archives/index.html   then select a year. At the top the Archive you'll see the options for sorting.

Finally, you can try the search box on the home page of the website.  Interestingly enough, you get slightly different results if you do your search at http://www.ehpes.com or http://czernowitz.ehpes.com  So, you should try both engines on our home page. 

Keywords that seem to work are 'travel', 'reunion', 'trip', 'hotel', 'tour', and town names, etc.  As in any Google search, multiple words in the search term cause the engine to look for the presence of all of the words by default. So, you may have better luck with a single word search than a multiple word search. You can experiment with this.

I don't think these search engines search the entire website as I thought they would. Rather, it appears that they search only the already Google indexed cached pages. I'm not totally sure about that, so I'm still experimenting.

Good luck!
