Day 48 - Niksic to Kotor - 65 miles




Another tough day. We got rained on in the highlands so hard that we couldn't see and the rain beating down on us was painful. We were in the middle of nowhere without a soul around and only one car per hour traveling this narrow road. There was little opportunity to get out of the rain except for a few vacated buildings. After over an hour we made it through the rain with little to show for it. It was exhausting, especially after two hard days. At the end of the day there was a harrowing decent into Kotor, which is at the head of the greatest Fjord in Europe. It is breathtaking to say the least. We are staying in a bungalow of the house of Branko. He has a striking resemblance to Fidel Casto and the funny thing is he spent a couple years in Cuba during the times he worked on a cargo ship.

Wow! Beautiful! Glad you made it through the rain. We met lots of people in the Czech Republic who went down south for rafting trips every summer. Now I can see why!

I loved the DoubleDay shout out. You guys are going to be so strong you'll have to do it twice!

Still jealous! :)
