Oh gee whiz, I’ve done a lot since the last blog post. Checking in from Athens Greece.. I’ve finished Bosnia i Herzegovina, back into Croatia, another 16 km into Bosnia, back into Croatia again, and then to Montenegro.. (in this blog).. but since I have also ridden through Albania, Macedonia and now in of coarse in Greece.. where to begin...
6:30 AM arrive to a familiar ferry port in Split Croatia.. back to familiar faces.. First to Anton and Marija’s whom I stayed with in rainy November, for an early morning visit. And young Paulina who reads my passport to me in … Croatian! (Little translator in the making..) Then on to familiar faces #2, which is Rakela and his gang at BMW Club Split...
A pretty sorry looking one at that… really stands out though here in Tuscany. One last post to wrap up my time in Italy.. How much will I miss the comforts of a home!?? A washing machine, a kitchen, a warm bed that I don’t have to search for at night, so many things I love about home.. So here is a little bit of the last days of my life...
Florence gets it’s very own blog post.. It deserves it, a very special place and a highlight for most visitors to this country.. And for me, located only 15 km down the road from where I am staying..it’s where I go to take care of normal daily things, like banking, insurance, shopping, etc. Not a bad hangout!!! Florence Duomo I’ve...
I was honored to have good friends whom I’ve met earlier on this journey travel all the way from Estonia to visit Italia, and me..! Maris and Anneli. Our main goal together was an Italian culinary extravaganza!! Food, wine, cheese.. what else! And I think I can vouch for all of us, mission was a complete success. But first a look around to...
I have been lucky enough to visit Italy a couple times before in my life.. Rome, Naples, Genoa, Pisa and Florence. They are all amazing and worth seeing again and again! But nobody has ever said to me, “Sherri, if you go to Italy, you must visit Assisi.” This is something I feel I need to say to you or anybody who wanted to know.. First...
There’s snow in ‘them hills! Ahh, after the beautiful sunset leaving Croatia the night before, I arrived on the early morning ferry to Ancona Italy in.. you guessed it, the rain. I didn’t pull the camera out of the bag, no point and kept it dry. So, this will be a non-motorcycley blog post, but I absolutely loved this town and...
Welcome back to wild and wooly Dubrovnik and my last Croatia post! As mentioned before, I stay here for a few days because of the crazy weather.. so in my wanderings I took plenty photos.. How cool is it to park the bike here? Even after a few days, it still feels surreal to live inside those walls, I’m just loving it! Views from my window...
Nearing the end of my Croatian tour, can you believe I have another super tall guy to introduce. And I just realized, they got taller the farther south I went in the country. I didn’t know this, but anonymous wrote on my last post that 5 NBA players in the USA come from Split Croatia! Sorry, I like basketball, but I don’t...
Today is a very busy full day with Rakela in Split Croatia! First, a little background information about where I am! A very popular destination for visitors, Split has been around for about 1700 years and is the main administrative city to all of Dalmatia. It is also the main hub for visitors as they have a slew of ferries to choose from for exploring...
