Sunday

Since we went out clubbing last night, we slept in this morning. The club was fun; There was a really good band playing there. They played all sorts of covers and we danced from about 10pm till 1:30am. Kurt and I felt bad because our host family just told us to knock loudly when we got back, but we didn't like the idea of waking them up at 2am, especially with how nice they've been to us.

Sundays are dead in Tirana... Kurt and I went out, partly because we were getting bored and partly because we wanted to see if we could buy an American to European power converter. It was strange to see it so quite out. Most of the shops we're closed, so we walked to the "SkyTower" at the center of town. Basically it's a tall business building with a restaurant on top. We hung out for a little bit and just looked all over Tirana from above. We were both bummed that Kurt hadn't brought his camera, because it was a fantastic view. All that's left today is to go to church at 5:45, (I'm convinced that Zef stole the idea from Jeff ;) and then we're done in Tirana for a while.

We leave at 8:30 tomorrow morning on a bus to Urseke, and none of us have any idea what it's going to be like. Kurt had an idea what to expect in Tirana because he had been here 2 years before for about 2 weeks. I hear for the first few days, we won't have anything to do, because the camp apparently hasn't even begun yet. I do know that we plan to come back to Tirana about a week and a half before we leave Albania, so that we can attend a conference with Zef's church. We all think we may be tired of Urseke by then and ready for something else, as well as we will want to see our friends here before we leave. We'd have had to come back this direction anyways, since the airport is in Durres near Tirana.

That's all for now, until next time!
