A visit down south!
A group of us traveled to Mostar today on our first free day of the trip. It was lovely—Mostar is a beautiful town with an extensive and gorgeous cobblestoned old quarter, complete with the world-famous stone bridge that’s been named a World Heritage site by UNESCO. As nice as the views were, and the history and the sight-seeing and the browsing (sorry, friends, I don’t really buy many souvenirs…) the best part of the day was the bus ride down in the morning. I sat alone in the back of a nice, cool, air-conditioned bus (which is a novelty in itself) and listened to music on my iPod and thought and prayed and worshipped and was really at peace. The highway from Sarajevo to Mostar is really stunning. It was like God had timed the ride to the tempo of my music, so that every curve in the road revealed a new view of his majesty. I am really craving Christian fellowship, but yesterday I got to be with God, so that is enough to sustain me.
