This is not a travel post, strictly speaking. Last night, Nikolai had an emergency appendectomy. He had pain all day Monday and, after waiting in the emergency room for 4 hours, he was diagnosed and had surgery by midnight. He is resting now and will probably be home this afternoon.
What makes this a travel post is this: he immersed himself in the entire trip including trying to eat Friselle, a VERY hard barley bread that must be soaked in w
ater, doused with oil and laden with tomatoes. He rode with Karen and me to Ostuni, even getting to climb t
he final hill twice when I missed the turn going up and Karen missed the turn going back down.One of the funniest moments came when he convinced Karen to lay down on top of a dolmen so he could photograph her being "sacrificed." Anyway, speedy recovery, Nikolai.
