<div id="ygrps-yiv-1633578641">Hi boundary freaks,<br/>
<br/>
As some of you may know (the GCEBE people), I am in Lublin, Poland at <br/>
the moment. The tripoint Poland-Belarus-Ukraine is not at all far <br/>
from hear, being a few kilometres south of the city of Wlodawa in <br/>
Poland. The border with Ukraine and Belarus is constituted by the <br/>
river Bug, the Ukraine-Belarus border is a dry one. <br/>
<br/>
Some of us here consider going out to Wlodawa, see the well-preserved <br/>
synagogue in the town, and head for the former nazi concentration <br/>
camp site of Sobibór. And while we&#39;re at it, visit the tripoint, or <br/>
at least, get as close a look at it as possible. <br/>
<br/>
Now, to my questions: does anyone know if the ByUa border in the area <br/>
is marked (is there a fence, are there border guards, that kind of <br/>
thing). And does anyone have a decent map of the area? (I may be able <br/>
to acquire some class of map at the Wlodawa tourist office, but I <br/>
think they wouldn&#39;t have a topographical map of any kind.)<br/>
<br/>
In return for you help now, I&#39;ll report on the tripoint when we&#39;ve <br/>
visited it :-)<br/>
