A picture of a shepherd watching his flock up on a hillside in Kruje (crewee).  We were visiting the ruins of a castle and stopped to eat at the restaurant in the white building. 

Us and the Prestons overlooking Tirana where Elder Oaks came in 1993 to dedicate Albania for preaching the gospel.  Sister Preston just had an emergency appendectomy at the Greek hospital and is doing good.  We are all a little anxious about the doctors and hospitals here, so this is good news.


The chapel in Elbasan  which was built out of the city and no one can get there unless they are bussed.  The Albanian way of life needs to be studied before chapels are built.  People don't have cars, and regular buses don't run here, so they hire mini buses to take the members.  I am not sure who pays for the buses.

This is in Kruje again.  A favorite pass time for men is to sit and play games (dominoes).  They have no jobs, and this occupies their time.
