Goderich available, Both Sue and. Robert were able to find, work for three months during their stay in England. While travelling through England and France, they stayed in a van parking in Caravan Parks similar to Canada's trailer parks, In Paris they parked their van for the. Might near the base of the Eiffel Tower, At night you jut pull the curtains and go to bed. In Yugoslavia they travel- led off the main highway and came upon a tiny village of cave dwellers, all dressed in black, Many of the buildings in Yugoslavia, East permany and Czechoslovakia have never been repaired since World War II as the coun- tries are very poor. The stores have very few items for sale and if you see something you like, you just grab it and hope it fits. Military • manouevres and helicopters flying overhead are constant reminders of the communist government& which control these count- ries. Theft was a problem in Italy. The Italian thieves are not above stealing from your van so Sue and Robert • parked their van with two others in a triangle with the • doors facing, inward to pro- • tect themselves. • The roads and buildings have not been rebuilt since the earthquakes and long de- tours are necessary to get from one place to another, Sue and Robert remember they were not impressed with Venice. It was smelly and they were glad to move on, Greece is a very poor, desolate country and military action is evident. They travelled through Austria to the Riviera in the • south of France and on to Denmark. Here they visited a • Leggo factory where they saw small scale models of buildings built from leggo blocks. • A meal for four people cost • $10 in Czechosolvakia and a large bottle of wine was $1. You are not allowed to take any money out of the country and as things are so cheap, it was a problem to spend what Czechsolvakian money you had before leaving the coun- try. Italy his many villas. with cobble '.stone streets which stili, bear the marks of the Roman chariot wheels. Sue and Robert stayed in Russia, for two weeks. They tound clothing very even - sive; a pair of panty hose cost $13, a jacket which would sell for $100 here was $430, and an • average style pair, of slacks cost $100. The average wage is $380 a month, A bus ticket for 6 cents takes you all over the city but Russians travel outside the cities' is limited. Their. underground stations , are amazing. While the tourist is allow- ed to take pictures of the tourist attractions, no pictur- es of the military are permit- ted. •• In, Russia and other coni, munist countries, pens and pencils' are very expensive and the people will ask for them. In the next. two months before 'they return to New Zealand, Sue and Robert plan to travel across Canada and then proceed down the Pacifiecoast to San Francisco and then home. . • Excess humidity can cause, warping, rust and Mildew damage, cause windows • and doors to stick .and basement pipes to drip.
