Last post in Moldova

Had to squeeze in just one more post. The last 32 hours have been incredible. A full description will have to wait for the travelogue I'll type up on return to Indy...I hardly know how to do it justice with the limited computer time I have now. Suffice it to say it was an emotionally drenching (malapropism intended) experience.

I did a children's concert last night in Zgurita, followed by a chaotic book distribution session. This morning, I did a concert in Popesti (also in Drochia county), and this afternoon, I did a concert at a girls' camp in Causeni county where I was greeted like a rock star.

Tomorrow I will give a concert at another girls' camp back in Drochia. Drochia is a long drive from Chisinau, and Nicoleta and I are not sure of the transportation arrangements. For one thing, we are going up with a TV crew. Therefore, this will be my last post in Moldova. You should hear from me again on Friday from Tunisia.
