Ok...so I have (as usual) been lax on my posting from MK (that's Macedonia). Time is flying faster than I thought! We only have less than 2 weeks left in our 2 month visit. And so much has been going on it's hard to tell what all we've been up to in a short post :-)
This past weekend we spent 4 days in and around the Strumica region. http://www.exploringmacedonia.com/?ItemID=52134B158893F8428A440F8AFF8419E5
On the first day we walked around the center and shoping district, had a simple dinner and rested after our few hours travel there by car from Ohrid. We visited some relatives in the evening. The next day we went to the Pazar and again walked around the city, visiting other relatives that Saturday. On Sunday, we walked to church and had coffee afterwards with a cousin of Zoran's. From there, we went to the village of Murtino to visit with even more relatives; having lunch with one family, dessert with another, coffee with yet another, then rounded out our evening by visiting few more relatives for dinner before heading back to the apartment we stayed at in Strumica for the few days while there. The last day, we went back into Murtino to visit with one of Zoran's Aunts who is a a great Evangelist and we spent a good hour to an hour and a half discussing the Bible! It was such a joy to visit with her and the rest of the family!
Pavle enjoyed being in the village, seeing the animals, chasing after chickens, picking a cucumber (his favorite vegetable at the moment) and otherwise enjoying the happenings on a farm!
All in all, we had a great Easter trip. Hard to believe we'll be heading back to the States in just a few days!
