Happy in Hvar postscript

Ahhhh.... the feeling of premonition...

Pat and I agree the one mistake we will make on this journey is leaving Hvar and our wonderful third-floor walk-up with the amazing balcony and night after night of sunsets.... But life goes on.We are caught up on laundry, repacking yet one more time, the ferry back to the mainland leaves at 12:15 and we know we have an hour and forty-five minute drive over amazing but torturous roads to get to it so we're gettin' out of Dodge.

We go to Dubrovnik for two nights of living in a walled city and marveling at marble-paved roads; then a night in Durres, Albania (our last on the Adriatic coast); followed by two nights in Ohrid, Macedonia - in what we hope to be an amazing apartment and an equally amazing adventure. Then we head into Bulgaria. I'm negotiating for an overnight at a Bulgarian spa/ski center but am meeting opposition because it is at the end of another one of those faded yellow lines on the map. Then to Sofia and by the end of the week, the Black Sea. Romania, Bucharest, Transylvania and the trek back to Hungary await.

Stay tuned.
