Balkans September 16, 2018 Mostar, Bosnia Herzegovina

8:45 pm.  Kind of a low key day.  Walked old town, visited a mosque and climbed to the top of the minaret, ate 2 dishes of gelato and planned our next couple of days.
I also had a fun conversation with Sinead who works in a nice leather shop.  He is 22 years old, a Muslim and works 3 jobs.  We covered politics, economics, religion and marriage,  among other topics.  He kind of likes Trump, but shrugs his shoulders and thinks we make too big a deal of him.  He says they have had many politicians much worse than Trump.  He's in no rush to get married either.  He has a good, dry sense of humor which I appreciate.
Our waiter for dinner is also a hard worker, a bit leary about people who only want to make money and is very disappointed in LeBron for moving to LA.  He and his wife have the NBA Prime Time channel and watch all of the games.
We are off to Kotor, Montenegro tomorrow for 3 nights and hope to ride some nice mountain roads.
