Good Morning 😍🙏

Good Morning 😍🙏
Spoken Note
Right, I stayed a bit outside of Mostar. I suppose it makes sense, because they're not exactly on good terms. One side says we're Croatian or Herzegovinian and the others say we're Muslims and they don't particularly like each other either. Directly on the opposite side there's also a campsite that's jam-packed full and this one here is relaxed. What am I doing, I'm going to prepare myself a nice meal now. And then actually do the four kilometers as a walk to Mostar, because swimming wasn't really much today. Morning exercise was nice, but as for movement, walking around a bit, we walked something like 1.5 kilometers into the bunker, we only covered about a quarter. Individual sections, because that's military grounds, you're not allowed to film there, only shoot a few photos maximum in the bunker. You're not allowed to film either, you need a permit. What did I actually want to tell you? Oh right, I'm going to head into Mostar later, because behind the mountains the light will go out here by seven at the latest, so there'll still be something to see, I think the sun disappears behind here and then it won't be so hot anymore. I deliberately decided, I'm outside today, the road will get quiet from 6 PM onwards, so that's peaceful and then there's a little tour through the old town. Oh, quiet! What's coming there? Right, that was a ship. Oh man, what a drive here, what impressions, what images, I could only capture a fraction of it somehow with my phone at the same time, because it was also exhausting the drive, it's like all mountains, it wasn't as dramatic as the crossing from Croatia to Bosnia, but up here it still stays mountainous and I didn't want to stop every five kilometers and take a nice photo. I hope I was able to capture a bit of it and you have an idea of it with the appropriate music as accompaniment. The pictures can of course only capture such tiny little moments that made me grin fat and greasy on my face, which I still have until now and I have to somehow process the rest first, because it was of course also about the war 92 to 95 and the perspective of a Muslim woman who had my group as a guide, that was of course also shaped very personally at some point due to the questions, it's very interesting indeed, so basically the post-war generation, what they tell about their parents and grandparents who really got hit full force there and no, that's not a pun, it's intense, really intense. Right, I think it continues tomorrow, feels that way for me anyway, waterfalls and then maybe I'll make it to the last primeval forest and then I'd probably spend the night there and next week Bulgaria is on the agenda. That'll be exciting, definitely, it's just exciting. I wish you all that you have a wonderful evening and enjoy every single moment. I wish you a big, fat grin on your face with everything you do now and peaceful, joyful moments.

Starting point and then that crazy bunker...although the art is pretty funny..

During the ride...almost 100km just along rivers and lakes...😍❤️🙏

It's relaxed...because I'm relaxed...although, the bunker and its visitors were pretty weird...45,000 sqm 300m under the mountain...and the entrance looks like a small hotel 🤪
