Sremska Mitrovica

Hey everybody. If you haven't heard I am now in Sremska Mitrovica. I am in a threesome again. At the end of this transfer I would have been in a three some for half of the time that I have been in Serbia.

My Senior Companion is Elder Christianson. He is cool and is really good with the language. He is about 6ft 6 that is tall. My other companion is Elder Beaumont from Canada. He is the one of the new greenies here in Serbia, and he is full of that greenie faith. No wonder the President wants us to call them goldens instead of greenies. Sorry I have hard time charging over. We just call them Gusters anyways.

Sremska Mitrovica is a good little town, but it hasn't always been this little. Sremska Mitrovica was once one of the largest cities in the Roman Empire. In fact it was one of the four capitals. Your can still see some of the ruins here, but there aren't much since most of them where destroyed by invaders. Before it was destroyed it was the birth place of a lot of Roman Emperors. They are some of them Herennius Etruscus, Hostilianus, Decius, Claudius II. It was also a major military point for the Romans.

See you all next time.
