The Fjord of Kotor

Today, we traveled the 10 or so miles deeper into the fjord at the end of which is Kotor. It is an old walled, Venetian city that is remarkable. For one thing, the city wall runs upwards from the shore to a height of some few hundred feet, at the top of which are some fortified buildings. We didn't go up because it is just too damn hot, but we did anchor off the shore and went for a swim. The scenery is spectacular. We are hemmed by mountains which come down to the shore and small towns are strung along in places along the shore. We will post some pictures at a later date.

Likely tomorrow or the day after, we will head back to Croatia.
