Catching up

I haven't posted much but I am going to try and catch up a little. During the week it has been mostly business as usual. Going to their offices during the day and usually just dinner and time at the hotel at night. We did go and have a traditional Macedonian breakfast during the week. It was basically beef stew with Macedonian moonshine. Not exactly what I would have for breakfast at home but the stew was so delicious.

On the weekend we travelled out of town for an overnight trip to a popular vacation spot for the locals. It is called Lake Ohrid and it is very similar to Lake Tahoe. It is lake in the mountains which it about at 2 and a half hour drive from the city. I traveled there with a guy named Sasha and his girlfriend. We also met up with Marco and Tosha in Ohrid. We left at about 9am on Saturday morning and they took me by the scenic route. We took our time stopping at a few places along the way and we didn't get into Ohrid until about 6pm. We rested at the hotel for a bit and then went out to check out the city. We went to the downtown area and walked around for a bit. Next it was big dinner full of local food. After dinner we went to a bar with some live music and proceeded to have a few drinks. We wrapped things up about 2am and went back to the hotel for some much needed rest. We met at 10am on Sunday for breakfast. The plan was lots of sightseeing for the day. We wrapped that up around 7:30 and came back to Skopje. The mountains in Macedonia is a beautful place. I had an awesome weekend and there is so much to say about the places we visited I think I will create a seperate post and some pictures that I took along the way. It is getting late now so I don't know if I will finish them all but keep an eye out for the next day or so and I will try to cover everything. I am having a great time here.
