Boat to Sweden carried family away from war - The Toronto Observer
Ilze Kalnins strained her eyes as hard as she could, in the darkness that night. No matter how hard she tried, she couldn’t make out that island with the cows that her father swore was there. It wasn’t her fault. She was four and a canvas sheet covered the boat carrying the Kalnins family to protect them from the sea water.
