• Ohrid via southern route

    July 8 in North Macedonia ⋅ ☀️ 22 °C

    Easy ride today, Progradec, Albania is a lively city on the lake and has decent infrastructure, but few tourists.

    I entered North Macedonia and visited the bay of bones, a site where pile dwellings were found from 3000 years ago. The museum has recreated it for us to see.

    Ohrid is a big city and it is hopping late into the night as if it were the Riviera, even on a weekday. On weekends there are festivals, although there was a very nice one tonight showcasing folk dance and music of eastern Europe. The Serbian kids stole the show. I recognized the Montenegrin team from Cetinje where I visited six weeks ago.

    I fell in love with a wooden sailboat with a teak deck. The most impractical combination of course but it is so beautiful. Good thing she is not for sale, just for sailing.
