Driving through Bosnia, up north from Sarajevo

The Bosnian countryside was not that bad as I expected nor the roads. We did drive on some major roads though and I guess small roads off the main ones are far worse, will not forget the first meeting with Bosnian roads just after crossing the border from Montenegro… I was fearing the worse but I was wrong.

Nice roads in Bosnia too, and tunnels in the mountains

A graveyard on the hillside

Outdoor auto repair shop 🙂

The Bosnians selling fruits and stuff. Tried to talk to them but as normal they keeps talking in their language without really noticing we don’t understand, but a laugh is very handy in any language. We did find out that the word for the mushroom “kantarell” is the same in both languages. Else the told us about the liquor they made from the plums (check out Jan’s pictures), some kind of “Rakia”. And the red berries were used as “viagra” in some way 🙂 Funny how you can communicate about important things even though the languages are way apart 🙂

Bosnian grafiti

Some contrasts – old vehicle and modern Electrolux building.

Do they have power plants here?

close to the plant

Jan is happy for being in Bosnia

Some more rust

This is “Arizona”!?

Another cemetary, all gravestones are facing to the east we think, same in all countries down here.

The roads are just fine as long as you stick to the major ones, no highways though.

Close to the border to Croatia, too bad my camera ran out of batteries so I couldn’t get the CD-shop in a picture, it actually was a small container with some girl sitting inside, it looked very primitive. There were also a “Sexy shop” sign but we never saw the actual shop 🙂
