A sudden magla

Jahorina (day 1)

I went skiing this weekend at Jahorina. Decent slopes, though it is a veritable old chairlift museum. Anyway, this was the crisp, clear view on the first day...


Jahorina (day 2)

... and this is what it was like on day two, skiing in the infamous Bosnian magla (fog), which can be fun in the same way that driving with your eyes closed is a cracking good time. The magla is a staple of Bosnian culture, just as much as cigarettes and sausages. The entire country is mountainous and without warning the clouds can drift into the valley, covering you in a thick, gray blanket.
