We spent our last few days in Rejika, off the Adriatic Sea, and Zagreb, the capital of Croatia. On Tuesday when we went back to Rejika, where we relaxed on a beautiful beach off the Adriatic Sea and met up with a few of the campers who lived near the area. We also had a final dinner with Stevo and Sarah, the missionaries here who lead these camps and much of the missionary work done in Croatia. 
On Thursday we drove to Zagreb (see pictures) to see the city and then met up with an even larger group for pizza and gelato. What was so exciting was how many of the kids we whe ere able to see after camp, many wearing their camp t-shirts, and laughing about the songs and dance moves as they sang them. A few brought friends who are interested in coming next year. It was so exciting to see how happy they were to see us and reunite even though the camp has just finished a day ago, and on top of that, how excited many were to come back next year. These kids just grab at your heart and we will be using facebook to keep in touch with as many as we can. Tonight (Friday) is our last night here in Croatia and we will head back to the States tomorrow. We are going out for a nice dinner in downtown Zagreb which should be fun and sad at the same time. This was quite an experience!
