Greetings! We are considering going to Medjugorje at the end of the month with a pilgrimage. 2 questions...
1) I heard the mosquitos and bugs there are really bad. My friend said she had a phenomenal experience on pilgrimage, but she was eaten alive by the bugs, and there are no screens in the rooms, which are un-air conditioned and hot unless the windows are open. We%26#39;d be staying at a pansion near St. James Church. Are the bugs really bad? Are there typically no screens nor air conditioning? I know this seems petty, but we%26#39;re both incredibly burnt out right now and have a limited amount of time to get away (and limited budget.
2) My husband may need to keep in touch with work while he is there. His blackberry has an international plan. Will it work ok there? I saw from another post that international phone service works there. I%26#39;m not familiar with whether that translates to blackberry service as well.
Thanks for any help you can give!

Some of the pansions have got air conditionng. I am staying at Pansion Flowers and it has as have others.
It is extremely hot there in summer and the bugs are bad enough, especially at night, keep windows shut as I got several bites once and had a very swollen face one morning. I thought when I woke up I had had a stroke lol as my forehead seemed to be swollen as well before I looked in the mirror a very weird feeling it was.
I went to first aid and all was ok, it took a few days for the swelling to go down but I had several bites on my face.
Some pansions again have got screens
hope this helps
Stella
