Our bosun Chloe has a highly tuned American palate. Her radar spotted this rather posh looking McDonalds as we drove out of town and decided we needed some fries and a coke. A perfectly American road snack for our trip east to the Medevil Golubac Fortress.
We made it to Serbia’s capital city. Our Airbnb is in the center of town which makes for the perfect place to walk around and enjoy the city. We hired some scooters and a guide and set out to discover Belgrade. This incredible city where Sava and Danube rivers converge, is one of the …
We rented a cozy Airbnb with a spectacular view in Žabljak-although, come to think of it, we don’t think there exists a bad view anywhere in Žabljak. It’s all jaw dropping impressive. Everyone Montenegrin we met told us to drive up to see Crno Jezero–Black Lake and it did not disappoint. The air here smells …
We took a little road trip into the heart of Montenegro to visit Ostrog Monastery. I’m not sure how it was possible to build this monastery on the face of a steep cliff—in the 17th century no less—but both hiking up to it and ducking inside the two tiny chapels inside caves—will equally take …
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 …
We’ve got a little weather coming in today. Some wind has kicked up and the limestone mountains that rise about the bay make for an excellent Bernoullis tube. 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 …
