Kotor, Montenegro (2007)

The next Montenegro stop was Kotor, a UNESCO site that had a lovely old town within sturdy city walls and a steep hillside fortress behind it.  Montenegro is the world’s newest country (for now).

Casino Royale was set in Montenegro so we kept an eye out for James Bond.  Unfortunately, Casino Royale was filmed in the Czech Republic.

 

Narrow streets of Kotor.

 

Gerry and I keep lookout.

 

Where will this lead us?

 

More cobbled streets of the old world.

 

I found this cute blue & green eyed cat chillin’ underneath a chair.

 

Sun roof.

 

Clock tower with hillside fortress behind it.

 

We decided to climb to the top of the fortress.

 

Nice view mid-way up.

 

More view.

 

The rest of the town.

 

Here’s the clocktower again.

 

The town that the fortress protects.

 


Say Montenegrin cheese!

 

Another lovely view.

 

Where does this little side path go to?

 

Gerry explores the path.

 

Turtle.

 

Last bit of climb.

 

Finally conquered!

 

Yay Kotor!
