wet and wild

This will be a short one but we wanted to update everyone with our status.  There has been some flooding in Shkoder this past week, our part of town has not been affected and we did not really notice a difference in the happenings around town other than some shorter tempers and a lot of people walking around with wet pants.  That and constant buzz of helicopters and military personel carriers moving through town.  The villages have been hit the worst as normal, but the US ambassador along with the staff at the Peace Corps here in Albania have moved us temporarily to Tirana.  They will continue to monitor the situation in the north and will let us return to Shkoder as soon as they feel we are safe.  We will post more later complete with our own pictures and stories from Shkoder.  Until then the best article we have seen was on CNN, so for now hope all is well in the US and we are doing well here.
