Am leaving USA 4/27/2010 thru 5/5/2010. What kind of weather should be expected and what kind of clothes do I pack. Any other tips for packing?
Thanks

Jonathan, we are talking about Skopje in Macedonia, not Northern Europe countries.
I would pack clothes you can layer and take light jacket, pullover & couple of different footwear, like walking boots for hiking around beautiful nature, as you go to Bitola too, I suggest to visit Pelister NP,Pair of shoes and trainers are OK.
People in Macedonia like to dress up for night out,also we have coffee culture, which means smart casual to meet with friends for a coffe and chat at one of the numerous coffees on the Vardar riverside.
Have fun in Skopje

Hi,
If you want to go into the mountains, take some warm clothes as well...When I was there in May two years ago there still was snow on the tops...It might also not be so warm in the evenings...
If you like hiking, definitely take some good shoes and suncream, the nature is beautiful! See my homepage for more info...
Cheers,
Dennis
You are getting excellent advice. Flexibility is the key. Several light layers combined with some type of weather shedding outer shell will allow you to adapt to almost any weather you may encounter.
I throw in a few $ to buy some clothing if I need it. An extra sweater can almost always be purchased if needed. Cash takes up very little space and weighs almost nothing. This does not work so well if you are a large physical specimen. I once traveled with a friend to Peru who was well over 6’. He ended up with a sweater that came to the middle of his forearms. It seems very funny now. I am glad he did not need pants. That would have been very funny indeed.
You can never have footwear that is too good. Well fit and durable footwear is the foundation of your trip.
Happy Trails

City views from above... very impressive. The best, of course, from the plane.
But standing on the balkony of Mirjana's flat was really great, too. The view across the main part or to Mount Vodno, with its Milenium Cross at night was stunning.
Start walking from the Fortress KALE (10th-11th century), moving to the church St Spas (lovely wood-carving, sth that Macedonia is famous for), then through the OLd-Bazaar, then Daut Pashin Amam (now an art-gallery, used to be as the name suggest Amam, public spa), and continue through the Stone Bridge, the square, have a cup of coffee (oh this is a city of cafes, one cafe on every ten people : ))), and then visit the Museum of the City Skopje - very good exhibition about all the items found on the archealogical dig-outs on locations in Macedonia...
The pic: Ali standing close to the Stone bridge, and the background is actually the city square... In the last, say 5 or 6 years it has been renovated and it is quite a nice place now.
Skopje can rely on warm weather for a great part of the year, resembling in this Southern Italy, so it is not strange at all to see so many cafes with tables and chairs outdoors.
However you will not see just the usual chairs and tables, as you see in the picture I have posted here, taken in Macedonia Street.
You will also find many cafes that are nicer, because they have sofas and armchairs outdoors, as in Istanbul. I mean really comfy sofas and armchairs like the ones you can see in the second picture I have posted here.
This seems to indicate that people like to spend time in these places, relaxing in good company.
...or abandoned cars ? In Skopje, all surfaces are for parking, including sidewalks and grass. This makes life difficult for the pedestrian, who must walk in the streets with the cars (and crazy drivers).
When I arrived at my hotel, the Aleksandar Palace, I noticed this large building near it, so I was curious to know something about it. I learned it is the Boris Trajkovski Sports Hall, a sports centre with basketball and volleyball halls, a bowling alley and a fitness centre.
For sports events it has 6000 fixed seats, plus another 2000 movable seats.
It was named after President Boris Trajkovski, who died in an airplane crash in 2004, during his term as President of the Republic of Macedonia.
When the Sports Hall was inaugurated, the legendary Harlem Globetrotters basket team played here.
