We all managed to get up early, and after breakfast we headed by bus to Prizren, Kosovo. After checking into our hotel in the early afternoon, we had a couple of hours to explore. Prizren is really a lovely city, nestled below a mountain, with both churches and mosques, a pedestrian walk along the river, and many bridges. One bridge was covered in "love locks".

Several of us went to lunch-- and I enjoyed some excellent vegetarian fare, including a hot pepper-- though not as hot as the Macedonian peppers I remember from WCSO's 2012 summer tour! We walked around and explored a bit before our rehearsal and concert in the evening. The concert went well, and was part of the DAM New Music Festival. We had almost a full house. My piece wasn't on the programme, though-- MPQ will be meeting us again tomorrow in Macedonia. After the concert, we had a delicious dinner, at the same restaurant where many of us had lunch! Then, off to bed-- another long day of bus travel, and another concert ahead!
