SEGMENT 1
Sunday: We left the Abenteuer
& Allrad show and went straight on our trip to Greece. We headed
south through Austria to Italy and spent the night in Lazise at Lago di
Garda. The next morning we pushed on to Viserba where we visited Magdalena's
parents who were vacationing there. Then finally we reached Ancona, a
nice port city (pic01) from where we took the ferry to Igoumenitsa, Greece.
It was pretty hot until the sun went down - but then we sat aft and watched
the spectacular sunset right behind us. The camp-on-board (pic02) proved
to be pretty comfortable and we arrived at our destination in the early
morning well rested.
Our guidebook recommended a
beach close by and we had breakfast right there looking back to the port.
And then our actual exploration began:
We headed northwest towards the Albanian border, past the little village
of Sagiada (pic03) and found the perfect cove to relax - after all our
last few months had been pretty stressful. So we hung around the cobble
beach with beautiful water and even a beach shower. After lunch the sun
was getting a bit tough with temperatures of almost 100 degrees. We just
came from a cold front in Germany and weren't used to that heat.
So we took a little trip to Sagiada to have a drink and then drove a loop
through the amazing wetlands. We spent more time along another beach before
returning to the first one for the night (pic04).
We enjoyed the loneliness of
the cove with only the sound of crickets and the waves slapping against
the shore.
What a relaxing start into our adventure.
