Subject: *the family gets off the train*

First a man, Demek Pipka, departs from the train, helping his wife, Ilona, off. They both look relieved and happy to be off. They say something to each other in Slovak. Ilona looks back into the train and waits for her youngest, Neda, to get off. The young girl looks around, eyes wide open in delight in seeing this new, strange land. Following her is another girl, Marjeta. She too looks around than looks to her father. "Ocko, this America?" She smiles and moves so her brother, Dusan, can get off. Dusan gets off carrying two small bags.
"Deti(children) this America. Our new home." Demek says, taking the bags. Neda tugs on her mother's work dress and says. "Mama, where we live?"
"First Ocko get job, dieta. Dusan work too." she says comfortingly. Dusan looks around the station, marveling at all the new things until his father calls him and the family walks off.
