This is the very last long, difficult transfer leg of our trip back home, we had 770 km to go in front of us mainly on standard national roads and several borders to cross.
Starting from Skopje in Macedonia we have been riding in order through: Kosovo, Albania, Montenegro, Bosnia and at last arriving in Split Croatia.
Going through all these borders crossing was easy apart the Kosovo border where we were requested to buy bikes insurance because of no cover in Kosovo by our green cards.
We kept going through continuously changing landscapes, the Dalmatian Coast being the most beautiful and deserving a dedicated trip only for it in the future.
We were impressed by the "development" of Albania where the country "growth" is clearly visible.
Late in the evening we arrived in Split and, what a surprise, we did have a 10 minutes rain today for the very first time since we left Aksai.
Before dinner the usual tourist visit down town where the remarkable Diocletian Palace is worth while a visit, a lot of crowd everywhere.
Tomorrow the plan is to ride to Zadar, only 160 km away where in the afternoon we will get on the ferry to Ancona, Italy here we come at long last.
From Ancona we will ride to Luca and Giovanni home town Macerata.
Today we made 772 km for a total of 6769 km since the start of our trip back home
