We woke up and walked around the corner to the Catholic Church for Easter Mass. A vibrant community of Catholics packed the small church. Visiting imams and German NATO soldiers sat in the front pews
Following mass, we walked along the river and breathed in the culture of Prizren, a town with so many mosques that you can't deny hearing the call to prayer.
We hiked with Shkumbin into the hills that look over Prizren. The ruins of an ancient fortress sit high above, and we looked onto the beauty of Prizren. We hiked another mile or so through the hills, before relaxing a a cafe.
We visited the buildings of the League of Prizren, the site where in 1878, Albanians made a case to the European powers for independence. The reality wouldn't happen until 1912--though not for all Albanians.
