Land of a Thousand Hills

It is beautiful to be here. The temperature is a lovely 70-80 degrees, tempered by the daily brief rainshowers and the green green hills. Above you see our hotel courtyard, hanging off the side of the mountain, and below is a place we stopped for shishkabobs, locally known as brochettes. Apparently, soon it will be warmer and less green, a shame, since before I came rumors said it would be winter, so I packed sweaters.
