MONTENEGRO - Part 2: Albania Trip, Russians and Bosnia Boundary

One day we went for a trip to Albania. Behind the boundaries you see a lot of not finished or very old houses, you meet a lot of "keymen" on the streets - people who are stanging by the roads and they're jingling with keys to get customers for their apartments (as we saw it wasn't very successful). Men wear casual formal trousers not only for a walk or when they meet friends, but we saw some cases when they wore them for a work on the construction site. You just have to keep staring at some phenomena like you're from some different planet.

MONTENEGRO - Part 1: Bosnia Rafting, Ada Bojana, Valdanos

This years planning lead to holiday on the border between Montenegro and Albania. We went by car as always and we spend the first night in raft camp in Bosnia. It was okay jsut for sleeping, altough the camp was just starting, because the "bathroom" was not really completed and the bed frames fell from the bunk in our cottage. Enough for one night sleeping ...

In the morning we were suposed to continue riding and going to Montenegro, but my dad decided we need to try rafting. Together with the camp operators we went to the border, to Monenegro (about an hour spent in stacked cross-country car), where our track started. We were rafting on Tara river, that together with the Piva river becomes Drina. The water was perfectly clear so you could drink it and there was wonderful nature all around us, also with the people from the camp it was quite fun, because they were talking and making jokes all the time, doing craps and all of that in bosnian, so we understood about every tenth sentence. Overall it was an amazing experience I hope you'll get too one day :)
