Tuesday 21 June. Day 5: Mt Vodno and Gorni Nezeri

Another slowish day...

We did some cycling in the morning at least! This time we got all the way to St Pantelejmon Monestary - leaving the hotel just before 6am. Unfortunately, we got there just after 8am and missed the 12th C. frescoes as the place was still locked up. There was a strange 5* hotel and 'ethno village' also in the town. We saw a number of 'ethno villages' on the trip - buildings in the style of different Macedonian minority groups....

It was a nice ride. We passed (and were passed by) several cyclists on morning rides and some power walkers. Lots of small agricultural roads (with some crappy surfaces) and some steep downhills. We arrived back to the hotel just after 9am in time to shower and have breakfast.

No photos. Mostly a day of washing, packing, small walks around the local area and finding local foods.

Today's ride: 19 km (12 miles)
Total: 34 km (21 miles)
