These pictures were taken on our latest trip to the UK. We also
spent a week each in the Lake District and Montenegro.
The Lake District was rather soggy which limited the
walking somewhat. Other than meeting up with friends, the highlight was walking
up Blencathra, which involved a bit of scrambling and was great fun.
In Montenegro we stayed at Kotor which is on the coast
and Zabljak which is up high in the mountains.
Kotor has a lovely walled old town and is situated in a
stunningly beautiful bay. Zabljak itself is pretty unremarkable but is great
gateway to the Durmitor National Park.
Neena and I also visited Dubrovnik, which I thought was
very pretty, but way too busy and overly familiar; the place feels more like a
theme park or a film set than a working town, which I guess it is as a great
many movies have been shot there, along with Game of Thrones of course.
Highlight: Kotor (a bit like Dubrovnik, but nicer, quieter
and a bit less discovered).
Lowlight: Montenegro’s suicidal drivers.
