Hills and hills and heat and heat. The heat wave seems to be following us around. High of 32 today, and temps above 30 expected for the next \n\nfew days as well. Oy. The good news is that we rode quite a bit on a secondary highway today and neither of us was too perturbed by it. Brent \n\nis vexed by a lack of a decent shoulder (this road has either no shoulder or a sidewalk, so alternating between vexatious and fine), and I am \n\nvexed by traffic zooming past. There is some of that, to be sure, but Croatian drivers seem singularly disinterested in running us down. They \n\ntend to give us lots of space, and they often slow down and proceed past with caution. A lot of them give us \"hello honks\", unlike the \"get off \n\nmy f*&#ing road or I'll kill you\" honks we get from Alberta drivers.\n
