From the amber coast to the amber waves of grain.
Very Hollywood.Your relatives were a lot more sophisticated than I would have thought.
People often don't think of Eastern Europeans as sophisticated. They instead think of peasants.Kaunas, my Parents' home town, was called the "Paris of the East."
Most of our images of that period are of Russia and the devastation of Barbarossa.Lots of log cabins and babushkas.
