Coffin Dodgers Drive Europe by coffindodgers

Today i managed to blag a lift with some guys in a different team who had a Volvo V70 that was covered in leapord-skin fur. They were known as Raging Horn.

It was the first time i had had some air conditioning. this car was the best within the whole of dumball. the reason being that it was contributed to the cause.

leaving sarajevo involved driving through the mountains. it is amazing as to how green this part of eastern europe is. the hills covered in thick green trees right up to their peaks. the rivers below were a turquoise colour.

the roads were very winding with vertical cliff edges on the right and a great river on the right before more mountains. it was 36 degrees.

the police pulled us over. we were with another three cars. we were fined for "speeding". we were warned about this as the police tend to ask for money without doing anything official to any tourists. there was no way we were speeding and when we questioned this, they changed their minds saying we didnt have our headlights on. sure enough, this is law, even in the day time. so we were fined 25 euros for the pleasure, and the rest of their local currency we had in our pockets.

i paid for the border control fair when we left bosnia, it was 3 euros each. funnily enough we were unware that you had to pay not only to get in but to leave also. no other countries have this.  we stopped off for a break and had a swim in the sea and a snack.

we got into dubrovnik the earliest in the entire trip - 7 pm. we went down to the old town in the evening which was beautiful. this place has fairly little western influence. it is very quiet with old white stone streets and buildings for pedestrians only.
