21JANUARY 2010 SPECIAL DAY AND MOROVA MOUNTAIN SUMMIT!
Today is special for me so I decided to make a blog entry. I first visited Good Shepherd in Cork on this date and entered later that year. So, I decided this morning to give myself a treat!
With blue skies, great sunshine and the Temp. -4, I headed for the mountains! I have wanted to do this since I arrived here. Shqip lesson, dinner and off I went and had a tough climb. It was tarmac until the last 100 yards or so as two hotels are being built at a high altitude. At last I reached the Cross on the summit of Morova. This is a landmark as it is illuminated at night. On the way up, I passed two shepherds guarding their flocks, and a man protecting a herd of goats. The goats were bigger than I have ever seen! Also, I saw at least 20 waterfalls all like giant icicles in the rocks. The view from the top was superb looking down on the city encircled with snow-capped mountains. I forgot to take my camera!
I returned from my adventure in good time for our Communion Service. I feel truly delighted and not at all exhausted. In fact I have energy to get a little study done now!
Have a good weekend!
