Hilfe

Vor etlichen Tagen zurück wurden wir ausgeraubt, unser ganzes Geld ist weg. Es war in der Nacht auf dem Campingplatz, von unserem Zelt, 2.500,- € in bar und unsere Kreditkarten wurden gestohlen. Die Reisepässe haben wir am nächsten Morgen in der Nähe von unserem Zelt gefunden. Das dies in Kroatien passieren kann, hätten wir nicht gedacht, es waren alles persönliche Sachen in diesem kleinen Zelt. Die Polizei konnte uns auch nicht weiter helfen.

Wir sind Donnerstagabend in Griechenland / Lefkada angekommen, bei Makis Taverna in Ligia. Hier bekommen wir essen und trinken von den Leuten. Wir bitten um Hilfe in diesem Moment, es ist jeder Euro von euchwillkommen, Danke. Wir suchen für den Moment ein Job, es ist nicht so einfach. Wenn ihr uns helfen wollt, dann könnt ihr mit uns kontakt aufnehmen, unter freekundpetra@googlemail.com oder auf dieser Website eine Mail schreiben.

Trotz allem Glück im Unglück, da zu dieser Zeit Antoinette mit Familie,Gründerin der Stiftung Niketan, Urlaub in Kroatien und Albanien machten. Mit ihrer Hilfe kamen wir nach Griechenland um hier alles in Ruhe zu regeln, da nicht übertall Internet etc. möglich ist.

Ein herzliches Dankeschön nochmals von uns an Antoinetteund Familie, für die schnelle Hilfe. Freek und Petra

rest day in Albania

Today we need some rest and we will stay here on the campsite from a dutch family here in Barbullush in Albania.

The last week we had only nice weather and the average temperature during the day was 45 degrees .

The last story from us was in Karlovac in Croatia and from there we were going along the coast threu Bosnia - Herzegovina and Montenegro , the roads are good but to many hills and mountains so it was very hard to drive here on the bikes , most of the time we are starting 6 am and we have a stopfrom 12 till 3 to recover and some swimming in the sea.

Last week we meet also Antoinette from the Niketan Foundation in Croatia and we discussed about the sponsoring for Niketan .

We hope that all of you who are reading this will give some small donations on our Spendenconto in Germany this will give us also a good feeling that we are driving forthe childrenand not only for fun.here the number again from the spendenconto for the disabled children this is Raiffaisenbank im oberland eG Blz 70169598 Kontonummer 103426459 .

last night we were passing the border from Albania and in those 30 km we drove we see already that this is a totaly different country and that the farmers are doing the most things with the horse ore the mule hmmm interesting.

Wwe are now in Karlobag in Croatia and the last few days we did not make many kilometers , because of the heat .

The temperature is in the afternoon in the sun about 50 degrees and we made today the desision that from tommorow we will start early on our bikes so arond 5 o clock in the morning so that we will make some progress .We did meet nice peole here in Croatia were we were sleeping for 2 nights and the hospetality of those people is so great that they want to give you everything what they got ( thanks for the good time Jasna and Robert). We will survive this heat with swimming in the afternoon.
