Montenegro - The first 5 days
An interesting day crossing into Montenegro. We decided to go in via Croatia for 2 reasons. 1. Buying insurance is apparently easier than at more mi or borders. 2. The wife needed to ring the 95 old mother. WiFi calls no good with a 95 yr old so we needed to be in the EU to use our UK SIM.
Phone call went well. Insurance not so. Border guard told me we didn't need insurance as we are from UK and will be covered. On inspection we are not. Not sure why not as Bosnia and Herzegovina are and so is Serbia. We should be but Comfort say we are not. So currently uninsured!
Anyway, found a lovely little campsite in the woods just a mile or two from the beaches and old town of Herceg Novi.
Stayed 2 nights.
We then moved onto Kotor where we parked in a car park for a day and a night. Lovely town. Horrible cruise ship tour groups everywhere midday ISH. Morning and evening better. Great hike up the mountain to 'the cheese shop' for a drink and then a walk down in the dark!!!
On another 20 miles down the coast to a campsite on the beach. Jaz beach - beautiful sandy beach. Stayed 2 nights and chilled. Took the motorbike into the holiday town of Budvar. Nice little old town but otherwise just a 'resort'.
