Hi Phil,

The languages was not a big problem. You can always find someone who speaks English (or German). And you have your hands to point and to make big gestueres

It's a very nice part of the world and worthwile a visit !

I'm in again
After drying my clothes and my luggage (about everything was wet) the road continues further North. At first I planned to visit Kosovo but the weatherforecast for the next days was only giving lousy weather and lots of rain in that region. I have had my part of the rain. (and, living in Belgium there will be plenty of rain for me the next months)
So,under a grey sky I drove to the Croatian border and searched for the sun.

sun ??









Yes !! at last I found it in Primosten

I've enjoyed the sunny weather for some time.
And travelled trough Croatia along the magnificent costoal road.
I've made a little detour into the inland. Perhaps, visiting a little part of Bosnia again. (a land which I like a lot ) but weather was far to cold as I drove further away from the coast.
So, back to the sea for sunwarmth...

Great ride Peter. And really nice pictures. Like somebody already said, you're obviously good with the camera.

Where in Belgium are you from. I used to live in Haacht (Vl. Brabant)

If you ever feel the need to get a taste of Brazil on two wheels, don't hesitate to come over.

[mirantesMT]

Ok... I checked out your website. You're a professional photographer... that explains a lot

Cheers

Hi, sorry for my late reply...
I'm living in Geel (which is in the North approx 40kms from Haacht)

Hmm... Brazil... sounds appealing...
