A Quiet Day In Orahovac, Kotor

It’s a do-nothing day today, which is great. Breakfast, then a walk to the nearby village of Ljuta. It’s Sunday, so the narrow and normally busy main road feels safe enough to navigate on foot. There's no footpath between the villages.

The village is slightly bigger than ours. It has a bigger mini store, a church, and more houses. We wander along the lovely waterfront road that runs parallel to—but below—the main road, admiring the fancy houses with their waterfront swimming platforms. There are a few people fishing but it doesn't appear that they have caught anything yet. 

Ljuta village gives good viewing spots back to Orahovac.

It’s almost 5 km return, so once we're back, we’re definitely warm enough to head down for a morning swim. Only a few people are on the beach at 9 a.m. Thirty minutes is enough in the water, and then it’s time for coffee. Yes, I know—"it’s a tough life"—but someone has to do it. 😂 There’s nothing stopping you from joining us!? 😉

There are three cruise ships in the bay today: Father Bear, Mother Bear, and Baby Bear. We watched the biggest one come in while having breakfast, but the other two snuck in while we were inside. They’re all leaving again this evening.

The rest of the day is spent inside reading, watching TV, and watching the British GP.

Dinner is chicken with the very last of our Croatian spices, potatoes, capsicum, peas, and beetroot. There may have also been a nice Löwenbräu lager as well. 🍻
