Today was a good day since we finalized an agreement to rent a small 2BR 1bath apartment in the old central part of Prizren. We will probably get the keys on Monday and move in on Tuesday. It will be so nice to finally end our full month of homelessness and be able to wear socks that haven't been worn at least three times before.
I've been exploring all around Prizren for a few days and will add some additional photos when I can, but I'm going to try adding a couple now just to see if I can do it. If it works you will see a view of the old stone bridge in downtown Prizren, with Koritnik mountain in the distance. The mountain is about 8000' elevation and is on the Kosovo/Albania border. I'll also put in a general picture of Prizren showing the minarets of numerous mosques in town. The last picture is of Darko and Yada in their home, since I was lucky enough to visit them briefly in Zagreb before continuing on to Prishtina.
Ohh!! I want to send the picture with all the minarets to my history of the modern middle east professor. He always likes to talk about the "pencil-like" minarets and also the Ottoman era clock towers -- keep an eye out for those Pops! Can't wait to see pictures of the apartment!
ReplyDeleteGreat photos! Love the pic of Yada and Darko and can't wait to spend time with them myself!
