Hot, hot and hot!!

This week has been interesting, it started off with threats of 40 C days (104 F) later in the week and it didn't fail to disappoint. We had no choice but to turn on our air conditioning the past 3 nights just trying to get to sleep. We also got to head out to a couple of summer camps this week. Tiff went to a summer camp on Tuesday and Friday at two organizations close to Shkoder and I got to head up to Hot i ri (Hot pronounced with a long o like oh)and the Catholic Church's summer camp put on by the Hot sisters, not to be confused with the hot sisters, which as one of my coworkers described must be a strip-club somewhere in Albania. Then on Saturday night we got to go to the Miss Earth Albania beauty pageant where about 27 girls competed for a chance to represent Albania in the Miss Earth competition. We not only got to go but had seats in the official Bashkia box seated right next to the mayor and vice-mayor, and Tiffany's counterparts daughter. Here is one of the many pictures I took, they are all a bit dark but I think you can get the idea.

Other than that not much has been going on just trying to beat the heat as best as we can. Hopefully heading east this weekend will provide some relief.
