Craig, The former Yugoslavians (the end of the country where we were sailing was Croatia and Slovenia) have very good beer, but even better than the beer is their slivovitz - a nice fiery drink distilled from plums.
That was a great sailing area (when you had some wind): lots of small islands; tiny harbors; and you were the only yacht there. The islands were very poor. Water was obtained from a cistern at the church - the highest point on the island. The women carried every drop of water that was used in the household from the church down the stone stairs to their houses in 5 gallon tins that they balanced on their heads. Nothing was available there: no fuel, no water; no groceries. But the ferry brought over the mail, the food, the beer and the slivovitz. Paradise for a sailor.
