During our ten days on this particular trip we managed three different countries, Slovenia, Croatia and Serbia. Only one day did we have dull weather, the rest of the trip the temperature was in the high 30's, great for photographs, but tough work being out in the heat all day.
On the day it was a little bit cooler and damp, we stopped off at a tiny village called Jost, high up in the mountains of Slovenia. They had a really unusual vehicle, a 2022 GAZ Sadko Next 4x4 Light Pumper which was imported from Russia. GAZ - Gorky Automobile Plant - is a major manufacturer of Russian trucks. The Sadko Next is a three-tonne chassis introduced in 2014 for off-road capability.
The tiny volunteer fire station was at the side of the road with literally nowhere to photograph the vehicle. This was no problem, they took it up high into the mountains where there was a clearance. Not only was there a drop of a long way down behind the vehicle, but the guy also told us, 'be careful, there are lots of wild bears around here'.

The view from the clearing, if you don't like heights then its not for you!
