Hurt in Tirana!

... Het trucje is om het stuur te gebruiken als hefboom, in mijn geval nu dus het linkerhandvat en vanuit de beentjes omhoog, niet vanuit je rug. Ging net, ik had nog nooit geoefend ;-). Toch wel even schrikken, en balen! Gelukkig nagenoeg geen schade, buiten mn voet en een klein krasje op de valbeugel ( aha, daar zijn ze dus voor). Misschien als ik m straks thuis was, dat ik nog wel iets zie aan een krasje, maar viel dus mee.Dat was nog wel even vloeken kan ik je zeggen! We ...

June 21st - A slightly later start thankfully so an extra couple of hours sleep before boarding a pretty nice, comfortable private bus for the journey into Albania. We stopped at the border and the driver took all our passports off to the immigration officer. After a period of sitting and waiting the driver got back on the bus and told us there was a problem with one of the passports, to which I confidently replied that it wouldn't be mine as ...

A travel blog entry by mothman

We managed to find a tour to Tirana for 35 Euros from one of the tour fellas in Budva - he ensured we got on our bus at 7am, and off we went. Guide was in English and Russian and it was a lot easier than going on local buses. Border crossing was a breeze, although we got no entry stamp - this wasn't a problem though as we left the country with no issues.

Walked around Shkodra for a bit seeing the mosque and such like, then a bus tour round ...

... He died in Babylon (modern day Iraq) and his body was moved to Alexandria in Egypt where it remained for centuries until a Roman Emperor supposedly melted down the ossuary and treasure to mint gold coins.

After leaving the site of the tomb, we made the long trek, via Macedonia, to Albania.

Day 4 through 10: Oh, Albania. What can I say? Such a unique place. It's changed a lot since I was there the first time 8 years ago. A lot more ...
