Day 49: Omis, Croatia

We woke up and had a leisurely breakfast whilst studying the maps. We are now a little clearer on how we are going to get to Istanbul and are concerned that we may not make our 70 day deadline. Where Kris finished his rafting was on a beautiful river which was worth a second visit so I cycled and Kris ran in the boiling temperature. We were informed that it was only 5km away however after running 6km we decided to just dive in the river to cool off and make our way back. Upon our return we were informed that the bike would not be ready today as the spokes required were not in stock and needed to be ordered in from Zagreb. Nightmare. Apparantly the wheels were unique and needed specific spokes. Both cheesed off and are now even more concerned about reaching our target... we decided to lay on the beach. Fingers crossed its repaired for tomorrow.

Hi Kris & Ali

Sorry to hear the bikes needed repairs. Although I think they have behaved remarkably well.

Just take a break and enjoy the rest.

Love from Mum & Dad xx
