A Baltic Surprise
December 15, 2008 ·
It is not for nothing that Gdansk, Poland has been labeled “Phoenix from the Ashes”. The photographs that hang in the Golden Gate, the stone passageway that leads into the heart of this medieval city, show a desecrated area lying in smoldering ruins. Not only has the total destruction at the hands of the Nazi’s been reversed, but the do-nothing, care-about-nothing attitude of the Communist era has faded from memory. Gdansk, as well as most of Poland, has been restored to its pre-war, pre-occupation splendor.
