The girls left for camp on Monday and by Monday night they called and asked that when we come to camp to bring them mosquito spray and fans to keep the mosquitos off them while they slept. There are 40+ kids at Ujhuta camp and we went there yesterday (wed ) to bring fans and spray and fresh baked bread. We stopped by a bakery that made the bread and we had to ride ther rest of the way to camp with the fresh bread smell. There is a boy about the age of 12 at the camp who grew up in West Virginia.

We are sorry that we didn't write sooner but we had no place that had wi-fi. We had great flights over and perfect landings. Everyone is fine and doing good. We arrived in Budapest on thursday and headed for Repcelak and stayed over night there and then we got up early and headed for Italy. We went by boat to San Marco and walked around Venice as there is no vechicles allowed. After we headed out and stayed overnight in Austria at a beautiful place and then we went to the home village where Judit and Mitja will live after they are married in Slovania. Then we stopped by Lake Balaton and the girls were able to put their feet into the water. This is the biggest lake in Hungary. We arrived late (10 pm) in ... read more
