Kosova, final

On the last day of the carnival, the team hosted a party, with delicious food and traditional music
and dancing!
Our last day, we visited two families, one an Albanian family who have been missionaries in Kosova for two years. These are the stairs to their apartment...

We went to lunch with that family; the weather was sweltering, but the restaurant was next to a mountain stream, and we actually asked to sit inside after this photo was taken, because the cold water made the air frigid!
It was one of the best meals I've had in the Balkans... the pita bread and salad were perfect.
Then we visited another family, a Muslim family who came to Durres in 1999, and stayed in the refugee camp that the church ran.

Beautiful scenery on the way home

Here is the tunnel we drove through for a solid four minutes

  3. The pita bread looks amazing! (I guess you are my daughter...) Do you have a recipe for this?
    I found a couple but wondered if there were any tricks I should know.
    Enjoyed you posts and pics. Sounds like a wonderful trip :) God is good.
    Love,

  4. Looks like your trip was a success.
    I'm thankful you were able to witness to the Muslims. Did anyone from St.Louis know of Pittsfield? Miss you
    Love Dad
