Crazy times.<br />Yes and then we called my grandma from the DEI to Holland and had to go to the PO so the operator could make contact and we waited there till connection was made.<br />It took 7 years before we had a landline phone here so yes I remember a different kind of communication as well. Fun to remember the old times though.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08266219753104068574noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4154371958497635946.post-76186781925151967802013-03-18T09:42:05.484+01:002013-03-18T09:42:05.484+01:00@Little Nell

Recently I was helping my parents clear/sort their "collection" and we found old letters circa 1954-56 that they had written in France where I was born. No phone calls to the US during that time, only letters and postcards. Later when my father was in Korea and Vietnam, we sent small reel-to-reel tapes. A marvel of technology to hear voices, but it still took weeks to arrive by post.

When my children were small and my mother lived far away there were only telephones (which my mother didn't like to use because of the cost) and snail mail. All faster than 70 days though.

How will they ever be able to imagine or understand a world where this was not possible? It's important that through our blogs we continue to educate I think. <br /><br />To survive that infamous railway was remarkable, and I don't doubt that Jan's health was affected. We owe them a debt of gratitude for all they endured on our behalf. It's important that they are not forgotten.Little Nellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11862657943846727987noreply@blogger.com
