• Zabljak

    As I was having breakfast 9 Bosnians showed up, they got beers, smoked, sang loudly and laughed a lot. Great crew.

    I had a choice of two different ways and I chose the hard one through the valley. A motorcycle post on Facebook made it look awesome. Some steep sections and some great views. But the southern way had really good views on the Durmitor range. With the included breakfast I started late.

    One nasty surprise after a long climb seeing a road way way up there with a valley on the left. For sure the road wouldn't go up all the way there right? But it did.

    Zabljak is a ski town, even though the lift I saw must not have run for multiple years. Just like Colorado ski towns there is an incredible amount of construction going on. Shopping at the Voli I ran into the Swedes again. I also ran into two Irish and a Brit, they were pretty fun to talk to. The Swedes and I ended up in the same park to hang out and eat our groceries. A banana, a pear, a kiefer yogurt, half a liter of beet juice and an entire chocolate bar was swallowed whole in less than half an hour by just me. Good thing all that cost less than 7 Euros.

    We shared the weather forecast which said no rain in the next 5 days but I said; we're in the mountains don't trust it. And an hour later when I was inside planning the next few days the heavens let loose and I know that they are in their tent, hopefully they have set it up already. I'm so glad to be inside .... again.

    Maybe I really don't want to be camping.
