Eric: Montenegro
Sailing the Adriatic with Silversea:
A Moment in Montenegro

By Nancy & Eric Anderson
Photography by Authors

he Adriatic Sea sits on the Apulian Microplate which separated from the African Plate in the Mesozoic era and now," say the guide books, "divides the Apennine Peninsula from the Balkan peninsula." Wow! Well OK, but how does that help travelers wondering if the Adriatic would be an interesting cruise?

A map helps. No, not Google but one from an old fashioned atlas. Now it all makes sense. The Silversea cruise would start in Rome, swing past Sorrento and the island of Capri, past Taormina in Sicily, past Kotor in Montenegro and Dubrovnik in Croatia and end in Venice, giving passengers a chance to visit all those almost legendary ports of call.

The Adriatic's a large inlet of the Mediterranean, the sea named by the Romans because it was in the center of their world. The sea has over 1,300 islands, all at one time dominated by Rome. Traces remain of Roman occupation adding to the mystique of this sea -- and stunning scenery completes the package. The Italian Government Tourist Board doesn't have much to say, relatively, about all this; Venice at the top of the map seemingly keeps it busier than it wants to be but spunky little Croatia (whose future clearly lies in tourism) nails it with its slogan: Croatia, the Mediterranean as it once was.

There is no easier way to visit such distant countries than by cruise ship. We had gone to Vietnam with Silversea Cruises and felt "doing the Adriatic" with them would be perfect for a milestone birthday celebration. We are frugal travelers but do recognize the difference between a value and a cheap product. Cruise lines like Silversea that offer many services at no additional charge -- including picking up the tab for staff gratuities - can be seen as expensive but can be, in a contradictory way, a bargain. Plus how often do cruise passengers find a butler in morning dress looking after their cabins (called suites by Silversea)?

Small ships like our Silver Wind have large libraries and fewer activities to distract you from the tranquility of a cruise. Passengers are happy with that, they can be pretty selective about which cruise lines they prefer. Although smaller ships don't put on lavish Las Vegas-style extravaganzas their performers can be surprisingly capable at creating smaller equivalents. Their libraries tend to be better stocked and their lectures and discussions more impressive.

Which ports of call are the most interesting depends on the personal tastes of passengers. And on the thought: is this their first time visit, are they ever likely to come back, and are they getting to see what they wanted?

Montenegro is a good example of this thought process. It's somewhat off the map, its tourism infrastructure is not yet developed, few of its notices are copied in English and its people don't yet seem to welcome visitors the way next door Croatia does. That said, it's a fascinating country with more to it that a brief visit to the port of Kotor would suggest. It seems the ideal place to take a shore excursion and spend time upcountry.

It's no surprise to find its history somewhat elusive to foreigners. The area was first settled by tribes, Illyrians who were essentially northwestern Greeks with some Celts around the 6th century AD but there are writings of wars amongst nations here that go back to the 4th century BC. Then came the Romans and the Goths and the Huns and the Slavs and the Turks and the Venetians and Russians and the French and the Austro-Hungarians and the Croatians. Then it gets even more confusing as the Western Balkans have always been. The history is complicated but the country became the independent Republic of Montenegro in 2006.

We are fascinated, almost mesmerized, by the Snoopy character dangling in front of our front seat, a treasured seat seldom available on trips. Why Snoopy? Why not the Brahman-like cow having its constitutional walk before us. Turns out the name of the bus company is Snoopy. Don't ask why!

Njeguski prsut and sir (prosciutto and cheese) and one of the houses in the village of Njegusi

We head higher and higher into the mountains. The view of the bay is stupendous. We come to the village of Njegusi -- birthplace of the important Slav poet and political leader, Petar Petrovic-Njegros. Here is a place for the Njeguski prsut and sir (prosciutto and cheese) we'd been promised, a delightful change from the fine dining on cruise ships.

Some village boys smile at us cautiously as if we are from Mars. We point to the monument behind them and try and find what it memorializes but they don't speak English -- and we don't speak Serbo-Croatian which suggests we may indeed be from Mars. Behind the monument, however, stand the names of villagers who have fallen in the accursed wars that have defined Europe for millennia.

We head on up to the former capital Cetinje, the 15th century town of about 17,000 people that is dominated by Mt. Lovcen, the Black Mountain from which Montenegro gets its name. It has been for many centuries the center of the Serbian Orthodox religion; the Court Church, built in 1450 looks so new it's hard to believe it's the oldest building in town.

the Court Church in Cetinje, two musicians outside the National Museum and a painting of musicians in the National Museum, Cetinje

We pass the church on our way to the National Museum, once the palace of King Nikola I whose painting inside shows him with medals on his chest and a revolver tucked into his cummerbund. The building, one of several that house the town's museums, was constructed in 1863-1867. Its website suggests its "collection of royal decorations… is not inferior" to the collections of the Heritage in St. Petersburg and the Historical Museum in Vienna. That contention would knock any travel writers who have been there off their feet, but the problem with this museum and others in Montenegro is the zeal their attendants display in denying photography of any kind by any visitors. The enthusiasm exhibited by the entourage of employees to thwart the many tourist point-and-shooters was relaxed briefly by one who whispered to us in broken English, "God's sakes, discharge a picture! It OK."

Two young musicians are accompanying each other outside the museum. They have time only for their music and are oblivious to anyone passing by - no hat is displayed for money. They are playing for their own pleasure. The scene mirrors, somewhat, a painting inside that shows how musicians in the old days sat outside a town's walls to please visitors and perhaps disarm those coming with intent to harm.

interior views of churches in Kotor

Our Silversea shore excursion ends with a tour of Kotor churches, the finale being a visit to the city's famous Maritime Museum.

It isn't much of a finale: the museum closed at 3 p.m. even though it knew our shore excursion's price included entry and there were still ships in town. We walked back to our ship as disconcertedly as the kids ahead of us going home to do their homework.

This is another example of how Montenegro tourist authorities have to change if they want visitors to make that important decision which is always: Is there a reason to return? Let's hope they change as this could be a fascinating country - and, to be fair, it has only been an independent republic since 2006, and presumably it's doing its best.

Hey Eric and Nancy! As a fellow Traveling Boy journalist, and as a confirmed WW2 aficionado, just wanted you to know how much I loved your story on Arnhem. Really great stuff, and truly brilliant riveting writing.

I’ve been there twice and covered it on my KNX radio show when I was on LA radio, and your story and evocative photos brought back a ton of wonderful and poignant memories. This could have been an amazingly brilliant military operation – as you both know – that might well have ended the War in Europe maybe a year earlier. However, allied misreading -- and in my view disregarding certain aspects of the situation in Holland -- plus the fact that they dropped the paras over 3 days and not in one huge assault at night (and not in the day as they did) doomed the mission to failure.

Your clever words and great photos brought all this graphically to life, and it should be required reading for anyone interested in any aspect of WW2, and certainly should be read by today’s teenagers. Again Bravo and well done!!!!

One of my dreams is to go to Alaska by way of cruise. This article very much intensifies the longing for that dream to come to fruition. I simply cannot wait much longer. And I will never again be able to think of a waterfall without picturing myself "nosing up" to it. Thank you for this intriguing, virtual journey.

Sandra Mines, Seattle, WA

Thank you for writing, Sandra. Alaska really is a wondrous place. Re "Nosing up" to a waterfall: we have a different article up at Physician's Money Digest on the same cruise (Small Ship Cruising: Alaska by the Back Door). The third last set of images there shows a crew member filling a jug of ice water from a waterfall while standing in the bow of the ship! Best wishes. Get there! To Alaska one day.

Eric & Nancy

Loved your photos from Alaska! Because I am the Director of Sales & Marketing for Westmark Hotels, I am up in AK and the Yukon quite often to visit our hotels and staff! But your pictures were so enjoyable-love to see the "real" Alaskans!

Heidi Howeiler, Seattle, WA

Hi Ms. Howeiler, That was kind of you to write and yes, you do see real people in Alaska, don't you? Alaskans always remind us off rural Texans or Australians in the isolated Red Centre of their country: hard working, sensible, rolled-up-sleeves people with no affectations. We love your Westmark hotels and we take our hats off to the person who started your company, Chuck West. What a great guy!

Eric & Nancy

Enjoyed your realistic and practical comments on Provence. Always wanted to go there ever since reading Peter Mayle's 2 books on Provence. But the two times I went to France, time was always short, so we spent our days in Paris. And now you say, it is losing its unique charm to tourism. (Sigh). It's always a choice between sharing beauty, and keeping it hidden. The world lurches on. Thanks for your thoughts.

Dette, Iligan City, Philippines

Hi Dette, (Would love to see all your waterfalls), Thank you for writing. Provence is busy in the tourist season but it hasn't lost all its charm or the quirkiness Mayle talks about in his book Provence A to Z. It's still a place to visit. Appreciate hearing from you. Best wishes.

Eric & Nancy

What a great article, especially regarding Louis XIV. I was not aware there was a contemporary account of his execution. It was fascinating. Thank you!

Celtic fan, Nashua, MA

Dear Celtic fan, Thanks for writing. I didn't know about the account of his execution either till I stumbled upon it. Sad to think that the French revolutionaries thought they could be both judge and jury. We are lucky to have a more elegant system today. Thanks for writing.

Eric & Nancy

Nancy and Eric,

Enjoyed reading your article on Santa Fe, NM. I was in AZ travel nursing in 2008 and 2009 and made it to Santa Fe. Took a lot of pics and really loved walking around the old town while I was there. Hope to be able to take the wife there in the future.

Dear friends,

My name is Adelina. I am a 22 years girl from Italy. I was looking for a free translation software and I found one. Program's name is Babel Fish and it supports 75 languages. I installed it but I could not understand how to use it. I am not a computer expert. Can someone help me please on how to run this.The link is here :http://access.im/3/babelfish. I thank you very much for your help.

Adelina, Celaya

Adelina, I didn't want to download it but I saw examples online. It seemed easy. You select the page you want translated, copy it and paste it into the box. You then click on the button to translate. You may have to do one page at a time. You can also use Google to translate a page; that's what I do because I don't want to load too much software.

What a fascinating bit of Russian history you wrote about! How sad to learn that 100,000 churches were reduced to create skating rinks and such during the revolution, after seeing the photo of the interior of a magnificent church filled with art! War is so devastating on so many levels! The art of their culture is so beautiful as is shown in the image of the painted box! Thank you,

Yoka, Westlake Village, CA

Dear Yoka,

Thank you for writing. Nancy is originally Lutheran and Eric is a dour Scot, more used to the frequently cold and often cheerless churches of his native land so we were both overwhelmed to see the beauty of Russian churches. It was kind of you to write, Yoka.

Thank you,
Eric & Nancy

Interesting observations.... Very informative and thought provoking. Questions.... What would be the best way to get from Moscow Airport DME to boat dock? taxi? prearranged limo? prepaid Viking Tours transfer? Any idea on cost and travel time for taxi or limo or Viking Cruise pickup from airport to boat? We shall be flying to Moscow on our own. Do you happen to have an address for the river boat dock that Viking Cruises uses in Moscow? I would be nice to Google map the situation. Thanks,

Robert Hopwood, Ottawa, Canada

Hi Bob,

Excuse the delay; we were on a trip. I do understand your question and will try and get you an answer. The Viking river dock in Moscow was for us in the north part of the city but once we were on the boat it was an easy ten minute walk to the Metro station that had us downtown within 30 minutes. I'm a lot more relaxed at the end of a trip than at the beginning and therefore I always feel taking the cruise-line sponsored trip from the airport to the dock makes sense: What starts right usually ends right.

Eric & Nancy Anderson

Hi Bob,

I’m back with more information. The river port’s address is Northern River Boat Station Leningradsky Prospekt, Khimki. If you Google that you will see it is about 15 minutes’ walk from two Metro stations. http://www.aptouring.com.au/files/documents/17/29022_Moscow2.pdf .

I spoke to Nancy at customer relations at Viking Cruises at the new LNR Warner Center in 5700 Canoga Avenue, Woodland Hills, Calif.

She was very helpful and advises you to take the Viking transportation service. She is biased, of course, but she’s right. Moscow DME airport is 40 miles away on the opposite side of the city, at least two hours driving time. The airport has no Metro station; you’d have to take the Aeroexpress train to Paveletsky station then change to the Metro and go to Rechnoy Vokzal station then take a cab to the port. A cab all the way from DME would cost at least 2000 rubles (more than $70). That’s less than the $60 each that Viking would charge…but…I think you’d be ill-advised to do it on your own. Why start the trip where the potential to screw up is so likely? Moscow taxi drivers are as dishonest as most tourist city cab drivers and probably yours won’t speak English. I think the address in Russian is

BUT...

I strongly discourage you from economizing on this and doing it on your own. Buy the transfer and save money somewhere else.

We have other Viking Volga web articles up at http://travelingboy.com/archive-travel-eric-russia.html and at http://www.ericandersonsworld.com/story.php?id=6LvDg.

Good luck. Great show Canada’s putting on for the Olympics!

Your blog keeps getting better and better! Your older articles are not as good as newer ones you have a lot more creativity and originality now keep it up!

Reseller Hosting, London

Hi, Is it Britni Freeman?

Thank you, we think... We suspect your comments are valid. In fact we think all of us writing for TravelingBoy are starting to get into the swing of things and do a better job -- and your encouragement spurs us to do even better. Thank you for writing. Have a good 2010,

Eric & Nancy Anderson

Dear Nancy and Eric

Thank you so much for the wonderful article on statues in Europe. Statues are my favorite art form and your descriptions were delightful to read - knowledge and fun together. I do still wonder about that foot in Rome...

Peggy - Pasadena, CA

Hi Peggy,

Thank you for writing. We appreciate your comments. We used to be critical of people who can't identify the persons on statues in foreign cities -- until one day a tourist stopped us in our own San Diego and asked us, in vain, for details on a statue we'd never noticed before! We wonder about that Roman foot too. If Eric had stood any closer he'd be in his typical foot-in-mouth position.

Eric & Nancy Anderson

I live in Santa Fe and see and delight in it every day, but your writing makes it sparkle even more. How nice to see Santa Fe through your eyes. Great photos!

Cynthia Whitney-Ward - Santa Fe, NM

Dear Dr. Anderson:

I have followed your writing career for as long as I can remember, and I think the thing I enjoy the most about your travel writing is the sense of joy and discovery that leads the reader to anticipate ever corner you turn in your travels.What a delightful traveling companion you are, and I know have always been, with that wonderfully eternally youthful joie de vivre...I wonder:do you feel that East, West, home is best? And where IS that place you have never been, but want to go most of all,yet? Bring we, your devoted readers ever along!

CAT -- San Diego (Scrips Ranch), CA

Dear CAT,

Thank for taking the time to write to TravelingBoy.com. You are very kind. We don't know that travel writers make the best companions; we suspect they may be obsessed with getting the best photograph or may monopolize the guide with questions so that others don't get to ask what interests them. What place is best? Well, it may be fun to sit in a rickshaw in Beijing or try to master the Metro in Moscow, but -- as you imply -- it is good to get home after trips.

Home is as comfortable as a pair of old shoes and home for many of us fortunately contains family.

We've never been to Easter Island and may have missed the boat (no pun intended) there. The island is losing its innocence; we've seen that happen at Machu Picchu or, closer to home, at Lake Powell in Arizona. So maybe the best travel advice is: Go when you are fit and healthy, before rising prices make a destination inaccessible -- and before hordes of tourists ruin any destination's mystique.

With best Holiday Wishes from Traveling Boy,

Eric & Nancy Anderson

What a fantastic primer on New York City. I think you have really captured its essence with this exciting overview of its offerings. Well done!

Gillian Abramson - New York

You describe a city on wheels - er, wings - and an absolutely perfect way to travel. SHOWERS & FLOWERS! Amazing! I love that your passion for all-things-aviation comes through in this story about an almost unbelievable airplane. Thanks for breaking the news in such an engaging way!

Richard Frisbie - Saugerties, New York

Enjoyed your blog on Romania. Noticed you called Bucharest "The Paris of the East." I wonder, is there any city not called "The Paris of something." I've read San Francisco is 'the Paris of the West,' Buenos Aires 'The Paris of South America,' and even Tromso, Norway 'The Paris of the Arctic.'

Terry Cowan - Fresno

* * * * *

Hi Terry,

Thanks for writing to TravelingBoy. And thanks for educating me; I didn't know that about Tromso, didn't even know there was a Tromso. I heard Bangkok called the Venice of the East when I was there and, in two weeks, I'm heading for the Venice of the North, St. Petersburg, Russia.

It does become a bit silly, doesn't it? But we are originally an immigrant nation that was Eurocentric. Maybe it gave our forefathers confidence even courage when they took old names, old ideas to the New World with them. I know I feel nostalgic if I drive around Ontario, Canada and see all the British place names.

I appreciate your email. Thank you for writing.

Enjoyed your article on Madrid. I noticed that you find it superior to Rome. Most of the Spanish folks that I meet seem to prefer Barcelona. How would you rate that city?

Samuel K
Seattle

* * * * *

Hi Samuel,

We loved Barcelona although driving around the city was surprisingly complicated as our maps were inadequate. The cathedral had scaffolding around it so I couldn't get the pictures I wanted but we found the architecture fascinating and the Picasso museum rewarding. We were anxious to get on the road to Costa Brava and didn't have more than a couple of days in Barcelona.

Thanks for writing.
Eric


Great article on Madrid. I've heard there is a rivalry between the people of Madrid and Barcelona. In which city are the people friendlier? How about for hipness? I noticed you were Scottish. I felt a similar thing in Scotland, with a Glasgow v. Edinburgh vibe.

Gary
Santa Monica

* * * * *


Thank you for writing to TravelingBoy, Gary. We found Barcelona friendlier.

Maybe that's because it's not the capital and it's not so busy either. Maybe it's because the Gaudi architectural influence is pervasive and -- to both its citizens and tourists -- comforting. Maybe it's because Barcelona is the gateway to the work of artist Salvatore Dali, and his spirit catches us. (I don't know much about art but I've seen a lot of Dali's work enough to think he never took himself too seriously and often painted tongue in cheek. Maybe fun people spring for fun places?) Hipness? Madrid is more formal and dressy but Barcelona, I believe, is more hip maybe, again, because it's more fun.

Your points about Scotland are valid. It's more than a joke. The Glaswegians are more down to earth. I think we see it here in the belief that if you had a flat tire in Middle America passers-by would be more inclined to stop and help than perhaps New Englanders.

- Eric

Dear Eric,

I liked the article. As I read it, I was wondering how you as a physician were influenced by Hippocrates. What influence did this historical figure have on the practice of medicine beyond the obvious 'oath.' Why is Hippocrates considered to be such a paragon of medicine? DWA - San Pedro, CA

* * * * *


Dear David,

Thank you for writing to Travelingboy.com.

Hippocrates is revered because he believed his duty was to the individual patient, not to the community at large. This is a very important premise. The Romans, whose empire followed that of the Greeks, achieved much in health matters by emphasizing clean drinking water and personal hygiene, and created great national works like aquaducts and public baths but wealthy Romans apparently preferred Greek doctors as their personal physicians.

Hippocrates is also respected because he brought intellectual thought to diagnosis. He taught his students to use their five senses in assessing patients and was openly critical of the junk science of his day as practiced by the priest-physicians who preyed on the fear and ignorance of the ill persons who came to them.

It is true that not all medical chools today require graduating doctors to take the Hippocratic Oath but most conscientious physicians base their lifetime commitment to the practice of medicine on the life and teachings of that one man.

Or so I think. Perhaps if we knew more about our heroes they would seem less heroic. But in Hippocrates' case he did leave a record of his thoughts and some of his principles are today as strong as ever.

Thank you for writing, it is appreciated.

Eric

Stay tuned.
