The conductor seemed quite helpful when he informed us that our connection had changed and was going to be the next stop, the small town of Prevov, in the Czech Republic. With that bit of information we thanked him and exited the train.  (We would find out weeks later that the neo-nazi rally planned for that afternoon of April 6, 2009, had been well publicized and surely something this conductor would have been aware of, possibly even to the point of wanting to deliver four Americans, two African American, into the waiting arms of hundreds of nationalist demonstrators).

Our realization that impending doom was on the horizon came when the confused officer in full riot gear clutching his automatic weapon asked what we were doing there and before we were able to answer he warned that “there is to be a skinhead rally here soon.
