Hola guys.
I was thinking to do another Maich meeting and I talked with some of Maich students and we agreed for this.
In advance I plan the trip which will be organized between 10 – end of October (weekend) here in Albania.
The weekend trip consists on:
Picking up you guys in Mother Theresa Airport (TIA – Tirana International Airport at Friday afternoon or wherever you announce to come) and enjoying the pre - meeting in my house where most of you will stay (according to the number of persons that will come).
Saturday program
Saturday early in the morning with 2 cars (if we need more we have a van as well), we will start the trip from Tirana to east south of Albania, our first stop will be in Pogradeci where we can stop to have the morning coffee near the Ohri, and from here we will continue our trip to Korça the biggest city of east South of Albania where we can have lunch in one of the villages, I would advice Voskopoja known as the city Churches which during of Dictatorial system most of the where destroyed, now as I well remember we can see only some of them (
[www.united-albania.com] ). Here we can have one of the most delicious dishes of the region “lakrori” which is a characteristic pie of the region, and indeed the delicious meat and the traditional “Raki” the burning drink.
From Korça through ex national road of 1950 – ’60 to National park of Germenji and we will have coffee break, and Leskoviku town from where we can clearly see Greek village of Konica, and taste the wonderful wine for which the town is well known. After this we can go to Permeti town known as well as the city of roses. We can pass the night in one of the hotel in the center of town.
Sunday early in the morning – till Sunday late evening
Sunday early in the morning we drive from Permeti to Gjirokastra to visit the stone town which is protected by UNESCO for the culture of buildings and etc. After visiting Gjirokastra we drive to Saranda, before entering at Saranda we can visit (National park Blue Eye) and have a lunch (fresh fried fish or what ever, very cheap).
After been for a while in Saranda bay we drive from Saranda through seashore road to Vlora passing through National Park of Llogara where very nice view from different sides like sea, mountain relief, beaches etc can be enjoyed from approximately 1200 m elevation above sea level. After having a coffee break at Llogara Park we drive from Vlora to Tirana for dine.
Some photos from those sites I would like to suggest you to have a look at Google Earth to check for towns that we will cross or visit, or if you would like to have more pictures from my field work in such areas please do not hesitate telling me.
