"7th annual Euromeet in Macedonia 2011 OHRID" Ohrid by wise23girl

Ohrid Travel Guide: 899 reviews and 2,943 photos

So we enjoy Ohrid

How wonderful to arrive and settle in to our Ajeksandrija Hotel. The view from our room was stunning and we were just inside the Old Town and in the other direction were the markets and shops. It seems to me we made the right choice.

We opted to rest the next day and were bright and fresh for the fantastic Official Dinner at the Belvedere...good food, good company, music, dancing.

Some of our VAs (virtual attendees) and the Barney crew kept us busy sitting right in the middle of the dinner table and then wanting to dance all the time.

More photos from this night will be posted in a travelogue.

    Hi Marg, yes I was there for one week and few times in Macedonia (Skopje, etc.) but I would like to take my kids there :-)

    I'm thinking to go there. It is just 1000 km :-)

    Love your travels! And Macedonia?! I'm so envious. I want to see Ohrid one day. That photo of the lake is beautiful!
    PS: I'm collecting ideas from everyone's pages to incorporate mine. I didn't know you could have colored font!!
