Waylaid en route to the Palace. I guess this is the temptation of the Hero before he reaches Chapel Perilous. The waters of the Adratic in the company of a new found friend.
In Budva for a couple of nights and then I make my way to Sarajevo.
Podgorica is a Big Nothing. Wouldn't have gone there if not for a meeting with a very helpful journalist who introduced me to a character among characters. If I began to describe this fellow I met last night, I would immediately be accused of inserting fiction directly into this non-fictional travelogue. Suffice to say he is far more believable as a character in a novel--something he has already been at least four other times.
Anyhoo, here I am at the clear blue sea, recovering from Kosovo and Podgorica before taking the last half of my voyage in and around Sarajevo.
And making numerous corrections as I type on this Serbian-Montenegrian keyboard...
