| Departing from Kotka towards Boston
on this tiny freighter |
|
| The Atlantic was stormy
and I really experienced what seasickness is |
|
| Boys from abroad at camp |
|
| Staff at Camp; Freddie, the
donor, at top right |
|
| Main building |
|
| Main building
with the lawn, where many activities took place |
|
| The barn with washing etc
facilities |
|
| The barn with an advertisement
of the opera presentation; George Souls (left) with mother, they
housed me after camp in Brooklyn |
|
| The daily assembly
with distribution of tasks; a new facility building
under construction |
|
| The assembly was run by the
director |
|
| The boys were housed in
tents, this is Buck palace |
|
| Tents were rotated but is this
cleaning or removal? |
|
| One of the tasks was
transporting garbage. At the back is the annex
of the main building where the local newspaper
was edited |
|
| Naughty boys (Trapani/Italy
and Smeets/Holland) smoking secretly |
|
| From top of the
hill there was a view to the neighborhood |
|
| Descending from
Finnsailor after a return trip across the
Atlantic from New York; in this suitcase I carried
all the summer
a bottle of Gordon's Gin forgotten with me upon landing
in Boston. My father was very happy to get it! |
