Photos of the lovely rolling and mountainous paths around the village of Trpejca, where Steve and I spent such a lovely 10 days already three months ago, yikes how times flies…

Along the shore of Lake Ohrid lies this Bay of Bones museum, reconstructing a prehistoric village built over the water whose remains were found at the lake floor and some of which now sit in an on-land museum behind us as we look at the walkway / bridge across the water that takes us out to the immersive museum. Below more photos of the houses and views from the reconstructed village.

Ah, Royalty.83

We’re back to Tsar Samuel’s Fortress, at the top of a lovely hill overlooking Ohrid City. The passage of time is evident in the nature of this building, and in the fact that it’s nearly two months since I first showed you this lovely location and well over a month since I returned to my regular work life in A’dam. The photos we showed in that prior post came from our first visit, when the fortress was closed. As you’ll see, on the day we could go in, the weather was a good deal moodier :-).
