Albania Greece Day 26/2 since Day 25 is missing :)
Wake up, have breakfast, pack, shop, refuel, and off we go to Albania. After just 25 minutes, we reached the border and said goodbye to Greece and hello to Albania.

First of all, the weather forecast for tonight does not look very promising.
What a day. Driving through Albania on a weekday is a disaster. I've never seen so many cars as here, and mostly the big Mercedes, BMW, and Audis. Such a density of luxury vehicles doesn't even exist in Swabia. I wonder how they can afford it?
It took us a good 5 hours to cover the 250 km to Montenegro, but this time the entry to MNE went smoothly as we had the correct papers ready 😅.
On the way, still somewhat annoyed by the heavy traffic and the reckless driving of the Albanians, we tried to find a rest area near Shëngjin (which is actually in AL and not in CHI), which was not easy given the hotel-like structures.
However, we found a dream spot in Montenegro. The reception was super friendly, and after the welcome raki, Tina was already quite tipsy 🙃.
The approach was even more difficult than stated due to the onset of rain (steep and very slippery due to the wet roads, the wheels spun).
