DRIVING IN ALBANIA

This week was definitely an adventure, all the stories I have this week revolve around driving. So side note, driving here is crazy, there are no rules whatsoever, basically just don't hit each other. And there are so many things besides cars on the road, there are cows, people on horses, old men biking and so many other random things. One more thing, no one knows how to use round abouts and they become a 10 lane round about so that doesn't help.
FIRST, I hit an old man biking. So realistically I didn't hit him, he ran into my car. He was really wobbly and crashed straight into the side of our car, I felt so bad, but he was fine and just continued biking.
THEN we were driving home from exchanges headed into one of those 10 lane round abouts, so we were stopped and I pulled out my phone to take a video, and a man, in a truck next to us was holding a gun, soooo sketchy, but don't worry he was laughing, so we are safe here in Albania. Haha let me know if you want the video.
LAST luckily, (read with caution, if you like animals) yesterday Sister Boyce was driving on the freeway and out of nowhere comes a dog and let's just say it didn't make it to the other side of the road.

Albanian tip: car is a bad word here

Thanksgiving is sooo soon! So thought for this week is be grateful! It's easy to not realize all the blessings that we have, but we are seriously so blessed! I love all of you and know that when we look for the blessings we will see how blessed we are, love you all!! (numero bekimet)

Love, sister Butters
