Budva to Durres, Albania –  Once again through the mountains on 2 lane roads, many small villages, good ride, then a new paved road Route 3 sightseeing route. Then the border came up, long queue so rode on the wrong side of the road to the front and a Policeman waved me to a parking spot and then fast tracked me through the Customs and Immigration, both Albanian, no sign of the Montenegro people. For the first time they actually opened my bike papers and recorded the details, that is why there was such a long queue. After that the road varied with traffic jams through towns, rode around them if I could, finally got to the new freeway that is not on the Garmin about 70km out of Durres and upto 110kph and with the increased air flow managed to dry out. At the end of the freeway was a Toll stop and you had to stop and the attendant said FREE and raised the barrier hahaha, maybe its free for motorcycles?

Durres – another up and coming seaside resort, they have developed the waterfront quite well. There is also an impressive old Roman amphitheatre and other ruins.
