The heat the last couple of days, or some water Dermot drank has given him diahrroea so we've laid low in Trebinje for a couple of days. It's a lovely mediteranean style town near the Montenegro border. Lots of big open spaces and plane trees that were planted 120 years ago.

| Morning coffee - lucky to find a seat |
 |
| More morning coffee - surrounded by the plane trees |
The centre square has a market every morning selling fruit and vegies, honey, dried herbs, clothes etc.
 |
| The locally grown peaches and nectarines are delicious |
 |
| Cheese and butter - we tried some cheese but it was pretty strong |
The town shuts down around 2pm and comes back to life about 6pm. A sensible way of living in this climate!
The town doesn't seem to have been affected by the Balkan wars. A few monuments for the victims of fascim in WWII.
After sitting around for a couple of days, I went on a bit of a tour of the town.

| The local swimming spot - water is diverted from the river, then returns to it. |
 |
| Hercegovacka Gracanica |
 |
| The inside |
Great view of town from the top of the hill where the church is.
And here's the road we'll head out on tomorrow - you'll have to look hard.
