7) MONDAY, 4 JULY 1977 : 267 KMS. - MOJKOVAC
We repeated almost the same scenery of coastal area today, driving from DUBROVNIK
until arriving PETROVAC and then crossings up to TITOGRAD with a short stop for
buying some apples and to change money.
People here are very friendly, especially children selling fruits on the way. A young boy came with fresh chilis and tomatoes and gave us as present.
The road from TITOGRAD runs
along a stream or a V-shape river in a valley with steep bluffs or cliffs, we
stopped to climb down to wash our hair, intended to take a bath. However, the
water was so cold that I only stood there barely a minute and had to leap up.

On the way down into the stream, we’re climbing onto the spiny brombeeren (blackberries) bushes with sharp
thorns. That gave us some traces on our legs when we climbed up.

On the roadside, I then took advantage of a little waterfall to take an open-air shower
and shampooing my hair. The water was a bit cold but no choice!

After I finished washing my hair at a little waterfall, we continued our journey
on the road along the river bank of high slopes all the way. It was very risky
to fall down but the roadsides were very beautiful natural canyons. We stopped to take some photographs and buy
fruits (like apples but having thin and clear reddish-yellow peel) from
shepherd children in the area. It costed 10.- Dinar and the taste was not bad, I
was not sure about the fruit name, probably a kind of nectarine fruit.

We stopped overnight near the town MOJKOVAC KOLASIN. On the roadsides, we saw
many pink oleander plants in blooms and pomegranate trees sporadically. Another observation today, most of the boys had
crew cut hair, looking from the distance like shaved heads.
