It’s a day of farewell, driving out of Croatia, back into Slovenia. It too, like Bosnia, has a tiny section of the coast and an equally tricky border crossing. Instead of crossing back into Croatia […]
2018 Day 89 – Porec
In what will end up being our last stop in Croatia, we’re traveling to the ancient town of Porec, most famous for its UNESCO protected, 6th century Basilica. Our path is along the coast in […]
2018 Day 88 – Rovinj
We have a failed attempt to see Hercules Gate and the Arch of the Sergii in Pula, in the morning but one way streets, lack of parking and traffic defeat us. All I get for […]
2018 Day 87 – Pula
The closer we get to Italy, the more prominent Roman footprints become. Nowhere is this more evident than in Pula, famous for its well preserved Roman monuments from the time it was known as the […]
2018 Day 86 – Family day in Rijeka
The morning is full of nervous energy, getting ourselves organised to visit my uncle Stipe. Apart from language, the biggest challenge will be finding parking for the motorhome in a busy, built up city. Our […]

2018 Day 84 – Plitvice Lakes
Yay! Today we finally get to see the stunning Plitvice Lakes. On the advice of our host, we aim to arrive before the tourist coach madness starts, so it’s an oh, so very early start. […]
2018 Day 83 – Plitvice Lakes, almost
Now it’s fair to say that Plitvice Lakes has been long earmarked as a likely Croatian highlight. I’ve admired friends’ pictures somewhat enviously, I’ve googled extensively (almost never happens – much of our travel runs […]
2018 Day 82 – Zardar
We walk through time again today, in the beautiful city of Zadar. Whilst it’s a thriving and sprawling metropolis now, Zadar’s historic centre is set upon a narrow peninsula, sea on three sides. It too, […]
2018 Day 81 – Sibenik
It’s funny how the mind accepts a routine. Despite knowing full well that we’re not due home for another 6 weeks, as the day count nears 90 (our usual end point), I have a daily […]
