It was really interesting because Karoly had served in the Army, as did all young men while Hungary was under communism. He never did have to guard the border but he drove the leaders around when someone tried to escape or was killed. Sometimes he would have to take the body to the family. He showed us where the fences were and how they had explosives in between the barb wire.
Then we really had a picnic. Ildi and Ande had put together a lunch in a big hurry after church.
It was a great day!
Did you mean to spell picnic wrong in your heading? It sounds like a lot of fun glad you were able to go! take care
