Looking for Lost Sheep

We heard about this Albanian YSA who had served a mission in England not too long ago.  Since we had not seen her at church we thought that we would see if we could go and visit her.  We understood that she lived in a fairly small village outside of the city.  One of the other YSA's had given us her phone number so we called and asked if she would be available for a visit this afternoon.  She said she would love to visit with us.  But we had no idea how to get where she lived.  She said that the Sister Missionaries did but when we asked them they were a bit unsure how to get there and had a full day planned today.  So being the brave souls that we are we googled a couple of maps that showed the village and thought that we could just call her when we got to the town.  I'm getting a little better at asking for directions and the Lord places people in our path that can help when we need it.  (It's amazing how that happens).
We drove up out of Vlore into some beautiful country side.  Made a wrong turn ended up asking for help - a woman who spoke a little English  told us that we missed the road to this village and where to find the right road.  You need to understand that these are not "roads" they are barely driveways.
So we are on the right road and dodging puddles and Potholes.  Then when we get to the little village we call Klara again and tell her we are in town.  When we tell her where we are she thinks we have gone too far and so we go back to another small settlement and call again.  Just when we think that we will not find her this young man comes walking down the road so we stopped and asked him if he knew Klara (he spoke very good English and told me to quit trying to speak to him in Shqip).  He said he does and asks his friend who just drove up to show us the way to her house.  We follow him back down the road to where we were and he points to a house that was about 50 yards from where we turned around.  We had a wonderful visit with Klara and her parents.  Below are a couple of pictures we took on the way and a couple of beautiful gates which I find way cool.
