Photographs of Sorocca (as promised)



The above is the landscape of Sorocca. The beautiful Pru River, looking across the Ukraine....



This is a monument, new, called the "Candle." It stands on a hill overlooking Sorocca, and is where I took the pictures overlooking the river.



These are the many, many, many steps leading up to the Candle.







We visited a very old and ancient synagogue on Purim....





The above are houses of the Gypsies, all of them live on the gypsy hill. In the second row, on the far right, is the House of the Gypsy King. Super Cool, eh?

As previously mentioned, it is a competition amongst them to see who can build the most impressive houses. I, for some reason, am most impressed with the wrought iron, but was delighted to see the oriol window....




And the above are icons froma chapel in Sorocca.


Gata. (That means done).

The reason you are most impressed by the wrought iron is because Mayor Daley has cultivated a subconscious love for it in your brain. He puts something in the water in Chicago. It worked on me, too.
