We enjoyed one more road- trip through Montenegro, before we had to say goodbye. We also enjoyed our second visit to Montenegro, as much as the first trip (2016).

Montenegro has so many beautiful, interesting and historical sites to see, we really got our fill, this time!

As we made our way to Serbia 🇷🇸, we would go through new territory, as well as familiar territories to reach the border. This would include Durmitor National Park, but this time we saw another part, before coming to the already visited Tara River, Canyon and famous Bridge. From there, we turned on a new road, to discover the border come up, about three hours earlier than expected. So, we did not spend another night in Montenegro, instead crossing over and finding lodging.

it is quite disorientating to travel from one country to the next (constantly like we do). The occasional vacation to foreign lands never felt that way to us before, but our lifestyle has us adjusting to new currencies, language, culture, signage, food, and much more often! It just feels so odd at first. Once we get our SIM cards in our phones, a new world opens up to us, and we get super excited to figure out where we are, and come up with a route of exciting new places to explore. Then, it feels good!

As with every country we go to, we find really interesting places to check out. Serbia will be no different! Our first stop is in a very remote part of the mountains.

By the second town we came to and passed through, we found a place to stay. There is not much available; and it had nothing to do with COVID19. It’s just remote.
Our basic needs are met, and we are enjoying the cooler weather in the mountains, too, after such hot weather at sea level.

Because so far, we have had no WIFI, and rely on 3G only, we decided to stay a second night. The family here is very nice, and the food is so good, and it is great to take a break from so much time in the car.

We are anxious to get back on the road to adventure in new surroundings, but our blogging time is taking much longer with the slow speed of of 3G for uploading. It is not unusual for me to spend four hours a night processing, photos, writing and uploading the current day events with normal speed of internet. Now, it’s taking at least six hours.

Getting behind on posting, when being a blogger and writing a book, is very difficult, so before we carry on, we must stay up to date, or its impossible to keep all our photos and writing straight! Just figuring out the names of places and their spelling is daunting enough.

Foreign travel is mind-boggling at times to get the facts and histories, clearly.
