Back to Montenegro

Mostly on the coach today, but the scenery was spectacular. It took us about three hours to reach the border between Bosnia and Herzegovina and Montenegro, and it was like travelling around Austria, but with very few people.

Beautiful mountains and forests with rivers running along the valley.

We stopped at the Djurdjevica bridge over the Tara river. It was built just before WW2 and then during the war they dynamited part of it to try to stop the Nazi's from crossing it.

This is the view from one side...

and the other.

After crossing the border we eventually reached the Durmitor National Park and caught a little train to the Black Lake.

The lake was so peaceful, and the mountains so spectacular.


We went for a stroll through a forest of enormous pine trees.


And then just before it started to rain torrentially we found a raft.


It was all a bit unstable, and Darren took loads of photos just in case I fell in, but he was out of luck.
