A very uneventful day in Sarande. 7/4-2013

So today I had another free day in Sarande, sadly the weather wasn't anywhere near what it was the day before but I thought I would do a check-up on my bike and besides that just don't do anything in particular.

That's what happened!

I had major problems communicating with the girls at a fast food joint and after a while I managed to order my brunch, a grilled sandwich with chicken, bacon, cheese, mayonnaise and... potatoes! Seems the don't get enough carbs in these countries I mean c'mon - bread and potatoes in a sandwich?! Anyway, it was good and I washed it down with a Amstel as they didn't have local beer.

Saved about half of it for a afternoon snack!

After that I headed to the supermarket and bought some stuff and on my way home they seemed to have a kind of a farmers market on the main strip along the beach.

Lots of vegetables in the place on the left!
When I had postponed starting with the bike long enough I took the bull by it's horns and got started, I removed the front wheel, the tire and the inner tube and examined it, it wasn't in need of any tuning from what I could see. I then tightened the bolt for the saddle, that's the one thing that I can't get fixed properly, it always loosens after a while and tilts forward enough for me to risk hurting the family jewels should a sudden need of braking occur.


Tomorrow I leave Albania!
