Welcome to Macedonia! We reached the border in the late afternoon and only a small stretch was to cover for that day.

Our Macedonian runners welcomed us at the border...

...and a peacock greeted us, too. What an unusual surprise for a border-crossing...

..our first steps...

...as we reached Bitola, a group of kids awaited us.

...together we ran through the picturesque old part of the city...

Yes, this is Bitola in the 21st century - but as a movie production was in process the centre of the city has made a time warp one century back....

The mayor of Bitola, a good friend of the World Harmony Run, received the torch...

Thank you Macedonia for the welcome!
