The rebuilt Stari Most (old bridge) in Mostar

On the way back to Sarajevo, the last meal as a group with Dario was at this lamb restaurant. Excellent food!

At Jablanica this narrow gauge class 73 2-6-2 is plithed with a G wagon similar to the one we used at Banovici. The monument commemorates the destruction of a bridge during the German occupation in the Second World War.

Driving from Mostar to Jablanica with the dammed river on the right and the railway on the left.

Mostar, Bosnia now has a craft beer brewery and bar Imaimoze. The owner learned his stuff in the US before returning. Vampir was particularly nice - a red IPA.

I fly home tomorrow and this will be the last posting from the post-tour visit of Dan, Dario, Hans-Peter and me to Mostar. I'll leave you with a view of the old bridge taken from a different angle this morning.
