ok.. in croatia now.. things have passed from one edge to the other..
first day, i entered from Slovenia to Croatia with beautiful weather, and everything was sweet.
i passed from the town of rijeka that was very nice.The views and everything was just spectacular..
so i kept on cycling happy and satisfied..
the road that follows the croatian coast was the only road traversing the coast a few years ago.now there is a highway.
Its a road that is by the sea most of the time but by no means can be considered to be flat. its a constant up and down with big altitude differences. also it is scenic, but it looks a lot like views from Greece. Rocks,sea and generally a hard landscape. beautiful .but not very unusual to me..
also as a tourist planet,the coast is a bit dead now. So no a lot of real villages on the way
,most are touristic resorts.
Of course the big cities are there but there is quite a distance between them.
So second day began like that.
Soft rain ,and soft headwind that in a short time turned into hard rain and hard wind.
cruel up and downs on the road. and nowhere to have a coffee...
i had to use the ferry to go to Pag island. there after riding for a while i
reached the city of Pag. i was already completely wet. soaked i would say. so i gave up for the day.
I had cycled for 4.30 hours and had only covered 50 km (normally lately i do 90-100) ....
i rented. a room and tried to get me dry..
so all in all i think that yesterday was the hardest day from the beginning of my trip.
today there is no rain. i am having a coffee right now. the wind is still here.
sometimes its even hard to walk.
i will try to do some distance today also and hope for the weather to get better....
i have to decide what will be the way i will follow next..
the coast?
should i go back inside of the balkans?
albania?
montenegro?
serbia?
jmmm
goal now is to reach Split and there i will think of all that.
so see you soon.
oh Thank you everybody for the support. its nice to read all of your comments. .
it gives me strength to go on. :)
ciao

αχ, αυτά τα διλήμματα της ζωής.
τι να παραγγείλω να φάω; μπροκολόσουπα ή μπιφτέκια;
που να πάω αύριο;
μαυροβούνιο ή βοσνία;
όπου κι αν σε βγάλει ο δρόμος σου, να θυμάσαι ότι νοητά ταξιδεύουμε κι εμείς μαζί σου.
"με βροχή, με κρύο με χαλάζι, ατρόμητος καλπάζει.."
Πωωωω...αδελφέ...τώρα σε διάβασα και με τρέλανες...ειλικρινά μαζί σου!!!
καλή δύναμη!!!!
Οποιο δρόμο κ' αν διαλέξεις, κάνεις μεγάλο ταξίδι. Οδηγείς και μας λίγο παραπέρα, σ΄ένα ταξίδι του μυαλού.
Καλη συνεχεια και καλη δυναμη!!! Ελπιζω ο καιροσ να ειναι ευνοικοτεροσ για τη συνεχεια!
ΚΑΛΟ ΔΡΟΜΟ!!!
