RE: [Cz-L] Lists

Gadi...

Thank you so much for your vivid report, which is illustrating - word by word & attempt by attempt - the experience which I made myself during my 2010 journey to Moghilev-Podolski. Nothing changed since then, but however I believe you'll agree, that the (Jewish) mood is still there and I'm looking forward to returning to Moghilev-Podolski - perhaps in autumn?!

Thank you once again and have an amazing week!
