5 MARCH 2010 ULLI RESTAURANT, MACEDONIAN "HICCUP"!
On Wednesday last we finally accepted an invitation from our proprietor, Bea, and drove with her to the almost-completed ULLI Restaurant! This is a new high-risk venture of her sister Luma with her husband Ulli. Its about 10-12 kms. from Korce and is very elaborate. We were eight, and a few enjoyed mountain rainbow trout caught in a nearby stream. We managed to stop and see that stream on our way back!
I think the restaurant will open for business tomorrow.
Yesterday, at 2.30, when Lalini had finished her Shqip class and Mirjam got back from giving her German class at Preca College, we set off for Macedonia. We went mainly to regularise the car. We had a "hiccup" at the second frontier when Lalini was refused admission - Macedonia has "no agreement with Sri Lanka" and Sister produced her Belgian card a little late. We had to retrace our steps to Tushemisht village where we left Lalini in a hotel - this took about five minutes. Our second exit and entry took so long, as all our papers had to be re-examined following our five-minute exit, we almost gave up! We got to Orhid and the three of us relaxed a little. Our visit ended with Mass in Croatian! We hope to settle the visa "hiccup" next week, please God, in Tirana.
Have a good weekend!
