Miss Shiperia and More

The rally on Wednesday went really well, i had planned the games and the kids seemed to enjoy them and no one got too badly injured, so that was good! We then went back to CEF to plan for Fridays craft day we also went for a drink we Maki in a bar on one of the tallest building with amazing views over Durres. IN the evening Dave and I went to Miss Shiperia (Albania) 2009. It was only just down the road and not too expensive so we thought we might as well. It was very interesting, and we gad a laugh. There was also some very bad singers between the ladies change of costumes!

On Thursday we planned for the craft event and moved chairs around and bought some materials. In the Evenki we went for a meal with Maki at his friends restaurant, we had muscles, chips, salad and bass it was great. That evening we stayed at Makis house as we wer up early on Friday for the craft morning.

The craft morning went really well. The kids really enjoyed doing graffiti making hats and especially getting their faces painted. Even the 14 year olds. None of them had ever had it done before. It was quite humbling to see how excited they were and how we take small things like craft, and art work for granted. They never have chances to make things and paint etc.

This weened has been good. Yesterday we went to sukth to look at the house with a concrete floor now! We the went to a beach in the afternoon and swam in the warm sea. This morning we went to the church in Durres and I helped Maki with the kids work. We then had a men's church BBQ for lunch which was nice, and in the afternoon we went to the small church in Sukth where Besi is the leader. This evening I played football again with Besis family and friends from church.

2moro there is another rally and iv got to come up with some games for it again.

Hope ur all well.
