Just a few thoughts to wind things up:
Sometimes prior to travel you see photos that highlight spots in a country & you end up being a little underwhelmed. Montenegro certainly surpassed our expectations. We saw some amazing, scenic sites. The people were excellent hosts and went out of their way to make us comfortable. Still haven't worked out why it was but at Virpizar they don't clean up after their dogs & the food was a total letdown-we are not foodies but everything was just way overcooked.
Kolasin-excellent train ride & the Biogradska Lake day was excellent
Kotor-extremely busy on some days with cruises. Apartment was in an excellent location. St John's Fortress climb & bay boat trip highly recommended
Zabljak-Durmitor Ring trip was excellent
Serbia-certainly seemed more affluent than the parts of Montenegro we had visited.
Zlatibor-an absentee apartment owner who over promised & under delivered. Incredible building boom happening. Somewhat disappointed with their catering to our style of travel. Just nothing at the time for Mokra Gora & other villages. Our reading had led us to believe that we would be able to join in day tours-tourist offices seemed to not have enough numbers to bother organising
Belgrade-surprised what a vibrant place it was. Excellent apartment
Schruns-magic countryside, efficient, co-ordinated & plentiful public transport. Excellent well priced lift system that we accessed via the visitor card
Seefeld- bit more developed for visitors compared to Schruns. Great natural environment.
Munich-only overnight in well connected city for our departure. Easy connection to airport & easy once there.
Buses-most buses were not late model nor well equipped but we enjoy the adventure that this can bring. The Flixbus was excellent.
Wizz Air-look past the check-in process & all was fine. Would certainly use them again.
EasyJet- have used them before & would have no hesitation using them again
Thai-all Ok. The 747 J sloping seats are something I will try & avoid from now on. The A350- Mrs RB was fine but my big feet & the short bed were uncomfortable for me-much preferred the 777. All flights the temp in the cabin was fine (have often found them too hot) and the air less "stale"
Looking forward to 2020 trip already. Thanks for reading along
Celebrating finishing a walk!
