Yesterday, Kosovo Albanians celebrated the one year anniversary of the declaration of independence from Serbia. Many people stretched the celebration out to start on the 16th by closing shops early with essentially everything closed on the 17th. The street party was massive and Smokey was emotionally traumatized by the huge fireworks displays, automatic gunfire, and smaller private celebrations that lasted for hours. The celebration this year seemed to top that of the actually party that was held as people were able to plan much more in advance unlike last year when the date for declaring independence was not well-known.
