Our usual group of friends getting ice cream/coffee at Gino's, our favorite ice cream place!
Summer Girls hanging out at the Kay getting coffee with friends!
In case any of you were wondering what the speed limit for tanks was. It was very sad to see the aftermath of the war still present almost 8 years later.
A walking street in the capital city of Kosovo...
And now a driving street! :) It just all of the sudden changes from a driving street to a walking street!
One of the mass graves in Kosovo. This mass grave had been dedicated to the men and women from a nearby village who fought in the military against the Serbs who were trying to cleanse Kosovo of Albanians. One of the women who had been killed was only 17.
We got to spend the afternoon at one of our friend's homes. She lives here with her parents and four siblings. We drank Turkish coffee and chai, and ate pretzels, peanuts, and ice cream all afternoon long!
Samira, she is one of our friend's cousins. We had so much fun with her!
Our bosses' oldest daughter. Their two daughters got to spend the weekend with us while they brought the soccer team back to Greece. Who got the short end of that stick!! :)
We learned just how shady European washing machines are a few days ago. We heard the washing machine making awful racket and walked down to find half of Jessica's clothes dumped on the ground and half still flapping around! The door had somehow come open but the spin cycle had not stopped! There was water everywhere! Haha!
The Summer Girls plus two eating out after fellowship at a Cuban restaurant. It is a rare occasion to eat any other food than local food.
One of the four Military guys that were at the picnic. They had come in for the day from Kosovo.
I was so excited to FINALLY eat my first American hot dog for the summer! I ended up eating two before the picnic was over!
Our bosses' youngest daughter at the 4th of July picnic happily sporting her balloon hat!
