Into Montenegro - An Unusual Entry

I struggled to keep up with Wendy as she chased our guide in what was the first of two car chases that day. Our destination was Montenegro on the far side of the River Bune. We had already spent a frustrating morning trying to find the nonexistent bridge marked on our map which now meant a 60km round trip. "I will get you across" said our lovely Albanian saviour, so we followed down an increasingly muddy track, in which his car got stuck, to the bank of a wide river where a small boat was waiting. Having come out of his way to help us he then insisted on paying the ferryman, who appeared from nowhere, to get us across.
Our second pursuit ended at a water mill, to which the proud owner was insistent we visited and photographed. So with leaky wellies on, I walked up the mill race to snap the spray of water emerging from the mechanism. Over coffee we heard stories of places he had worked all over the world but until we produced photographic evidence the mill owner refused to believe that we had arrived in Montenegro by boat.
