Outside the walls of Kotor
Back to DubrovnikOff by early bus to Kotor in Montenegro. The weather looked threatening when we left Budva but over the mountain, the sun was shining. We were walking around Kotor by 9.15 am and enjoying the old town. Like all the other old towns (Stari Grads), it was the same but different!
We explored churches, the Maritime Museum and lots of old palaces (grand houses). The walls are amazing running up from the town to the top of the mountain, around the top and back down. We sat in a restaurant eating local food for lunch looking up over the buildings at this astonishing wall. What a feat of engineering!
The harbour was a contrast - lots of boats, many costing over $100 million.
It did rain when we were in the Maritime Museum and when we were on the bus back to Dubrovnik, but we stayed dry as we had new rain jackets by now. The others are back in Split!
The trip around the lake was glorious with wonderful views. Back in Herceg Novi, this time in dry weather, we discovered that it wasn’t much better than the 1st viewing in the rain.
The views over Dubrovnik, as we returned from our 2 days in Montenegro were superb.

You've missed all the political news I'm guessing. So here is a wrap up.
Malcolm Turnbull accussed Kevin Rudd of doing favours for a mate in return for a free 2nd hand ute. he even demanded his resignation.
The email his accusation was based on has been proven to be a fake by a mole in the Treasury! needless to say, Turnbull has not resigned in shame...
In NSW news, Rees has lost control of parliament and closed the house early for the winter recess.
