Our day started out leaving on time to go and have breakfast at the Stephens Center restaurant to have good all american pancakes. On our way we encounter a slight problem. Christy and I got in an auto accident. We are just fine and all is well. This man pulled around us to the left and cut us off in front of us. The interesting part of this is that this happened right outside the American Embassy back gate. Well you can imagine the Albanian authorities and the Embassy got involved. There is hardly any damage to Christy's car, but the other gentlemen was charged, because it was his fault. Well with this happening we of course did not get our pancakes, but were still able to get to the Stephens Center and set up in time for the training to start. Sorry we don't have pictures, we thought it was not a good idea to take any at the time. Of course now we are sorry that we didn't take any. The memory is one for the journal.
Helping one another
Our training went very well. We agreed that the group will set up follow up time meeting with Christy to continue to learn and grow together as Hope Partner Mentors. They are very excited about how these new skills will help them serve the women in their communities of Albania. We learned a great deal from these women about the culture and the issues that the Albanian women face.
