.sarajevo.part.2.

On our second full day here, once again, we were out on town for a good chunk of our day. Nina has been nothing short of a trooper. She is filled with energy, smiles at EVERYONE who even glances at her. So far our two days have been very informative, we have been talking with our hosts a lot about life and ministry here, and have also been discovering the city. Here are some pictures.

One of the symbols f Sarajevo, the Sebilj, a cool-looking structure influenced by the Ottomans (like many other things here).

The street corner where the First World War began. This is the spot where Gavrilo Princip assassinated Franz Ferdinand and his wife.

We went to The Tunnel yesterday. During the siege of Sarajevo (1992-1995) this 800 meter long, 1.6 meter high structure was the only way in and out of the city. A family and their friends dug it next to their house during a four-month period. Food and medicine came in here, and hundreds of thousands left the city, and became refugees, then immigrants all over the world. 

The waiter whom Nina charmed yesterday. They had fun together, as the picture proves it too!

The three young girls working at a burek fast-food place. (Burek  is a local specialty made of phyllo dough and stuffed with various fillings. It's a  yummy , cheap way to fill your tummy.) They too, were charmed by our little charmer.
