"Montenegro was absolutely beautiful. The trip started out in the extremely interesting town of Ulcinj. Ulcinj is just across the border from Albania and actually used to be part of Albania so it had all the same characteristics of an Albanian town but on a beautiful beach and with lotsof tourists. The beach was amazing and swimming in the Adriatic is really refreshing. The water is a beautiful color and beats out the Bahamas any day. From Ulcinj, I traveled to Bar, Budva, Centinje, Kotor, and Hercig Novi"
A woman at a bakery in the town of Bar agreed to keep the backpack for the time it took to reach the castle. " It was only 4 km (about 2.5 miles) from the bus stop but the climb was so steep that it took me 1 1/2 hrs to walk there. The castle there was incredibly complex but almost completely destroyed
after the 1979 earthquake that shook Montenegro."

Because of problems with his ATM card, Adam had to skip to Croatia before he ran out of cash. In Dubrovnik, he met a young lady who worked at a cafe/art gallery. He gave her a magnet because he was so glad to finally hear someone speak English. Then he talked her into having a cup of coffee with him. They sat on the castle wall and ate hamburgers. The next evening she took him to a local jazz club.
