ABC WEDNESDAY--"S" is for "stately"

The other week I visited Princess Ljubica's (LYOO-beet-sa) residence in Belgrade, now a museum.  Princess Ljubica was the mother of Prince Mihailo, whose statue I have shown you many times.  The museum curator, dressed as was the Princess, greets about 30 visitors for coffee with Princess Ljubica," a clever way of making history come to life. She speaks as if the visitors are personal guests, and for a while, you lose yourself in history.

 See other S's on ABC WEDNESDAY.
