The second week of October saw the arrival of our first set of tourists this year, a remarkably low number considering years past. On 9 October 2011 XXXIV, at about 2:15 MST, Nate Sharmarko, Yu Kiu, Breanne McCord, Charles Dane and Eric Howard arrived in our nation after a drive from Sacramento, California, about two and a half hours west of Molossia. The group, one of the largest to visit Molossia at once, heard of Molossia through the website of That Guy With The Glasses, who came to Molossia in April 2010 XXXIII to make a movie about a mock invasion. Upon arrival, our guests were met by The President and escorted on a tour of our nation. The weather was beautiful for a fall afternoon, and our visitors took full advantage of the tour, seeing every sight in Molossia. Many photos were taken, and "El Presidente" water was served. His Excellency stamped passports and signed autographs, and the group visited the Molossia Trading Company for souvenir coins and buttons. The tour lasted about two hours and a fine time was had by all. We wish Nate, Yu, Breanne, Charles and Eric well on their voyage home and we look forward to hearing from them again. |
