Hello PBC thank you for your support through the comments on our posts. After reading them we all feel uplifted and ready for the day. Today we woke up and ate breakfast and then went straight to our daily devotions for thirty minutes. After our devotions we walked through the city and exchanged our money from dollars to euros without any problems. Kept on walking not even two minutes and we started buying souvenir key chains, bracelets, hats, etc. Once we had our hands full we walked to a restaurant and bought a traditional Albanian meal,which is actually a Turkish meal, for lunch- a Doner which is a wrap of chicken, tomatos, cucumber and some other sauces. And we ate some ice cream it tasted amazing! After lunch we walked to our host's house and jumped in cars to travel to a village. It took around thirty minutes to get there but when we got there we were greeted with almost ten children running up to the car. There were about 20 kids that came to our club. We started the club with a minor problem- we lost our script to our Zachaeus skit but we quickly decided the narrator (Aaron) was just going to have to improvise which worked perfectly. The kids seemed to love the skit. We followed the skit with the craft which entertained the kids for a long time because they do not get to color very much. We played games after which we had planned- but their favorite game was soccer, so we played soccer after playing a game we planned. We drove home and decided that we needed a night to relax so we brought pizza home and later surprised Aaron with a cake and ice cream to eat. For the rest of the night we hung out and played games.
