We left Gjakova yesterd to go to Pristina for the night before our flight back to Vienna today (Thursday)...but before we left, Berat invited us to join him at the Bethany Christian Services Community Center for an event as part of the USAid celebration of 15 year anniversary of providing development assistance in Kosovo. We helped Berat do some last minute set up stuff, but mostly, we just sat around waiting for the show to start. Maples and Faisal spent a lot of time with some of the young men and women who were waiting to present their vision to the USAid Executive Director. Soon, the delegation from USAid arrived and took a short tour of the center, in the middle of the tour, Berat took some time to introduce the Baseball camp to them...and then graciously introduced me.

Awesome pictures and enjoyed your play by play of your departure from home, flight, entry, and first several hours. Let me know if you find a good way to upload video...I'm trying several through Picasa but they are taking forever (huge files and slow upload speed) - I found a better way to do the pics on picasa to post to the blog. After you load your pics on Picasa into a new album (folder) you can put a star by each picture you want to upload later - you can caption each picture in Picasa - click upload to web album (make sure you have selected the whole folder) and there will be an option to upload only pictures that have a star - once they upload to your Picasa web album there is a blogger link - if you do it correctly you will see a single picture in your blog and if you click it will open to your picasa web album where you can do a slide show and see the captions - much easier than uploading one at a time via blogger with the 5 at a time limit...let us know when you are on Skype too OK?
