Next morning, we did a tour of the old town. Normally, the old town is the hub of the touristy area, but since it wasn't touristy, the old part of town was quite run down, with lots of collapsed buildings. But at the top was a well preserved castle / fortress, and there were amazing views from there. We came down and struggled to find a bakery, so had calzone in a pizza restaurant. 


We rode off and already it was very hot. Eventually we decided to stop for a coffee and some water. We found a nice place by the river, and they were bbqing some lambs on a spit, so we decided to try this for lunch, and it was very good. 


We continued on and eventually hit Sarajevo and we continued on towards the border. At some point, the road just did out and became a gravel track. We debated what to do, as the was supposed to be the major road to get where we wanted to go. Instead we turned back and took a more minor road over the mountain that was supposed to be tarmac. It was, but had lots of cracks, potholes, hairpins and gravel. But it did have amazing views. After emergency ice cream we continued on to Visegrad, a town near the border on the river. It was a nice hotel with views of the old bridge. In the evening, we went to the peninsula for food, which one might have thought was the old town, but in fact, it was a new old town, a replica of what the old town may have looked like. It was nice, but there was something strange about it.
