Saturday 28th
September – Tirana & Home
After an early breakfast when we said goodbye to our
fellow travellers – most of who were leaving on an earlier flight – we had the
morning free for our own exploration of Tirana. There’s not much to say except
here are some of the photographs.
 |
| Ismail Qemali - founder of the modern state of Albania in 1912 |
 |
| Monument commemorating the 100th anniversary of the founding of Albania |
 |
| Close up of the monument: Gent's ancestor's signature |
 |
| Old bridge near archaeological dig |
 |
| Optical illusion? Or does this building get wider as it gets higher? |
 |
| Skanderbeg: national hero |
 |
| Skanderbeg and the Ethim Beg mosque |
 |
| Boris bikes? Or Skanderbeg cycles? |
D'oh. Meant to comment ages ago on this but forgot! It's been very interesting reading about this trip. I must take the time to explore more of Albania next time I'm down that way.
