Apparently sea-weed is not a healthy diet for our generator. It suddenly started overheating—which seemed pretty strange, especially since our generator has super low hours and always runs like a champ. So the Bedouin crew spent part of the day trouble-shooting the problem. Eventually Mark discovered it had sucked some seaweed into the intake. Once …
After our tour of the submarine caves and visiting Her Lady of the Rock, we told our guide we wanted some really good seafood. He parked the boat and walked us into the old town, past the walls and the old entry gates, and lead us to this little restaurant. We walked quite a ways …
After our tour of the former Yugoslav submarine caves our boat driver took us over to a little island with a great big history. The island is man-made, the continuous commemoration of two fisherman who, back in July 22, 1452, discovered an icon of the Madonna and child on a rock or floating in …
Ever wondered where you would hide your submarine if you bought one? Well, the Yugoslav Army has just the place. Currently there are three sneaky sub caves available so you’ll want to reserve your spot right away. You just can’t find a good hiding place for subs these days. So this is quite …
10 Rainy Day Rules: #1 Pull the plug on the dingy or it will fill up like a bathtub. #2 If you disregard rule #1 you will have to don your brother-in-law Tony’s “Gorton’s Frozen Fish Stick’s Hat” and pull said plug to drain your newly acquired aft bathtub. #3 Whist following rule …

The wind seems to make a swift transition down into the narrow lane and rushes with some pretty good force until it surfs over the ridge and …
This post is for our AWESOME daughter-in-law Rachel who loves cats. This little museum was tucked away in a little corner of Kotor Montenegro. We heard about it and went searching for it just to go and celebrate what Rachel loves. These quirky off-the-beaten-path experiences really make us smile. If it’s not on …
We went to shore today to soak up the medieval town nestled at the end of the Bay of Kotor. The old town is flanked with fortification walls that long ago kept out invaders but now clamors with the influx of vacationers. High above the steep limestone cliffs a crumbling fortress has settled into the …
There were two celebratory holidays that occurred today. One we celebrated and the other we did not. Celebrated? WORLD OCEANS DAY And in honor of World Oceans Day we took the dingy out and collected trash around the bay of Kotor where we are anchored. And headed to a small shoreline and …
After our little side excursion to the Blue Caves, we headed up to Southern Europe’s only fjord, the Bay of Kotor. Technically, we’re not sure if it is really a fjord but people often call it that for good reason-it feels exactly like one. As you sail into the inlet, past the towns that …
