Five countries in one day!

So, Rasputin the mad monk did his trick at 5-30am again. I must have slept through it on Monday morning! But it wasn't as if it woke me too early as we had to get breakfast at 7 as soon as the dining room opened as they wanted our cases in reception and ready to leave at 7-45! Not really sure why we have to set off so early every day! The bus seat rotation plan was applied again but some of them had ignored it and others were just totally confused by it, so we just sat in an empty seat. A couple of old women were most put out that others (not us) were, allegedly in their seats but as nobody offered to move they were stuck with it, although it was clear they were not happy! We've decided we'll just sit where there's a space in future and let them argue among themselves!
Now it gets complicated. We started off this morning in Croatia (when we left our hotel in Omit) and ended the day also in Croatia (in our new hotel in Dubrovnik) but we crossed into Bosnia Hertzagovina twice! They used to be part of the same country when it was Yugoslavia but now Croatia is in the EU (but doesn't use the Euro) and Bosnia wants to be in the EU but they won't let them join. So, when you leave Croatia the bus has to stop and a customs officer takes all the passports and scans them through their system. This takes around 20 minutes. You then drive 50 metres and the Bosnian customs take the passports to scan. That's another 20 minutes. This was so we could go to Mostar for lunch, which was excellent as per what's app photos already seen.
But then it gets worse. You reach the border and have to go through the same 2 procedures again! But 20 miles down the coast you reach the border again. This is because Bosnia would be landlocked so they gave them a 5 mile stretch of coast.
So driving along the same little coastal road that entails getting through another 4 customs posts. Tedious! In total then we've been in Croatia 3 times and Bosnia twice today!
New hotel is different but very nice and although the food is still self service if you want something like steak the chef cooks it in front of you. The only thing was that, at lunchtime I decided I was definitely going to a particular riverside bar/grill just to enjoy the view. The waiter suggested we try a mixed grill platter and a vegetable platter to share and it was fabulous ( I might even say luscious Faye!) but I was so full, we didn't eat til 8-30 tonight and I took it easy. Just had roast beef and roast potatoes etc. Mum worries that I'm becoming an alcofrolic just because I got 3 lots of beer in to stock up the room so I don't get tempted by the mini bar!
