Maria NakoIt's nice that the children from Italy also went to the Mogoșoaia Palace and the Cathedral of St. Dimitri. My nephew was in a similar camp three years ago and still talks about that day when he saw how the news is made on TVR. Thanks to the Department for Romanians Abroad for keeping this work alive.
