"Pool Day near a lake in Veles, Macedonia"

The whole family went for a day trip to a resort near a lake in Veles (about 45 minutes from Skopje). It was an extremely hot day - perfect for swimming. I don't think Riley ever got out of the pool by choice. She has made a new friend, her cousin, Martina (age 7) who also joined us for the day.

I also noticed during the drive there were very few cars on the highway, which for Americans is unusual. But here, very few can afford to travel regularly and most depend on public transportation or my personal favorite - walking.
