We spent much of yesterday enjoying the relaxed and sedate town of Rovanjska. Nothing much seemed to be happening, with just a few families and kids ambling to and from the quayside. On that basis, we expected the night to be pretty quiet too…
How wrong we were! The ‘Party Band Draganac’ were in town. Dressed in tight red trousers and white shirts, the ‘band’ certainly stood out. Much like their clothing, the music also stood out – though this was largely because it sounded like an unholy fusion of a student karaoke bar, and the ‘on hold’ music that unimaginative call centres seem to give us!
I guess they were playing in the right town. For this was a captive market. There were no other bars…but there were masses of people all dressed up and ready for a night out! Unfortunately, our ‘stealth camping’ spot – which had seemed ideal during the day – was basically at the confluence of the rivers of people descending upon the bar. So at 10pm, we upped sticks and went looking for a place to stay!
Take a look at the video below to see where we eventually ended up. It involved negotiating a wire fence, and waiting 15 minutes for a window of opportunity to present itself where we could literally spring up the hill to the seclusion of the shadows at the top.
