... direction that the bus has come along the bay, using the assumption that it is a walled town, so how could I miss it?!?!... How could I miss it indeed, it's so well camoflagued that it took me a while to realise that I was walking alongside the wall - after about 1km, passing a dozen or so fruit and vege vendors I eventually found the western entrance... I don't know why this is called the western ...

I have a 10:30 AM bus to Montenegro. In much of Eastern Europe bus times and number of busses to locations change and getting up to date info can be difficult unless you are actually in the town (internet frequently does not cut it). I was only able to find out the specifics last night. <br><br>To get WiFi, I go out to a main plaza. Within a couple of minutes it starts pouring. I find a covered entry into a church, sit down and continue working away. The rain is intense ...

... for the event. And why is it that the bus drivers everywhere get to smoke? I am just glad that no smoking on board buses is the one rule the passengers actually do follow.<br><br>I finally got to Shkodra and of course there was nothing to Ulcinj until six hours later. I needed to find my way to Podgorica after Ulcinj and from Podgorica to Sarajevo all on the same day. My travel plans were imploding quickly since I wouldn't be in ...

... up we ran into some people who were eating it, and they laughed as if they&#8217;d been through the same hunt and told us where to find it. The outside of the pastry thing was flaky but soft and the inside was filled with a mixture of meat. The piece was cut like a pie and it was huge! Knowing he wasn&#8217;t going to be hungry for dinner for a while I got some orange gelato, a departure from my usual Stracciatella. <br><br><br ...

... green rivers including the Rijeka Skurda that feels straight out of Switzerland that there is the ruins of San Giovanni Fortress that is perched on this hill above the old town. The Stari Grad (old town) feels Italian with it's open squares and ornate churches an d there are abandoned buildings in the modern town that have been elaborately painted with colourful murals.<br><br>In the short time that I had in Kotor, I ...

... being situated in the middle of what I considered, "nowhere." However, this was not the case. There was actually a long line and tons of people there having lunch. I could only imagine like us they were on their way to visit Ostrog. The restaurant itself was classy and I can only liken it to seeing a luxurious restaurant in the middle of the Mohave desert. While I was visiting Ostrog monastery in Montenegro, Darko introduced me to a Serbian priest asking me if I wanted confession ...

... explored by Tammy and I. There was something funny that happened while we were in Kotor however. That evening, after we ate and tried to figure out how we were going to plow our way through Albania, while showering and getting ready for bed, one of the bombing alarms went off. This was scary at first Hearing loud and clear a bomb warning signal go off. For us foreigners, we had no idea what to suspect. Tammy got a bit jittery and well ...

Je koniec tohto travelogu! Nasadam na lietadlo a letim na Slovensko. Po takmer 120,000 nalietanych kilometroch tuto zimu a jar opustam samotarske cestovanie a vrham sa do nepoznanych vod tandemoveho cestovania. Tou skvelou spravou vsak je, ze mojou cestovatelskou partackou bude zena mojmu srdcu najblizsia. So Stankou sa vydame na ...

... ready for my cold bucket shower, but to my surprise, when I tried the tap I got hot water! Bummer - I was so looking forward to that (not)! We dumped our bags at left luggage at the bus station and went back into town to kill time before our bus. We considered re-climbing the walls and headed over to the entrance ready to part with another 2 euros and tackle the peak again, but after staring up at it we decided that our experience had been fantastic just the way it was and ...
