apologies and Shkoder

First off let us apologize for the lack of updates in the past month. I realized with the last post we have not written for over a month, and with the surprising amount of E-mail I have received from family/ friends I guess it is time to update.

Secondly if you have not already heard Tiffany and I are moving to Shkoder in about 2 1/2 weeks. If you look at a map of Albania look north for a big lake (Shakar or Shkrodra depending on your map) on the southeastern part of the lake you will find Shkoder, a larger city for Albanian standards. Tiffany will be working with the municipality and I will be working with World Vision, a international NGO that focuses on children. We are in Shkoder for the rest of the week, learning about our city and getting to know our organizations. Shokder is beautiful and will have pictures of the city up soon (hopefully).

Thirdly, pictures are finally up on the blog the pictures there currently are from Lezhe, the site we visited around Easter. I also posted others to Facebook so if you have facebook look them up there. Again we hope all is well in the states and we look forward to chatting with you all in the near future.
