    We said bye bye to Ksamil today and drove about 4h to Tirana. Time to get some culture after so many days at the beach 😁

    The city center is quite small but nice to see and walk. The main square is very monumental and reminded us on some other former communist cities. We stopped for lunch in a nearby Toptani shopping mall (and tried to have a break from the sun) and walked through the lively streets. A nice place to go in the late afternoon is the Tirana Castle. It used to be a small castle but now just the walls are standing and they transformed it into a nice restaurant and shooping area.

    Tomorrow we continue our way to Dubrovnik passing by Montenegro and Bosnia.
