No WiFi tonight so another brief update via texts...The Gals have reached the lakeside town of Pogradec on the southern edge of Lake Ohrid in Albania. Their view across the water is to Macedonia. They've stuck lucky with a nice hotel for the night for just 30 Euros for both of them B&B. Quite a tough ride for them through today with a mountain stage negotiated through low cloud cover. The sight of the day was a horse coming towards them in traffic stood up on the back of a flatbed lorry!! They'll be into Greece tomorrow edging ever nearer to Istanbul - another 3-4 days ridng away...
