Saturday 27th May

Leaving Slovenia for Croatia, only a short queue at passport control but it still took 20 minutes to get through !

Once across the border the roads were remarkably quiet, and if we had turned right instead of left, we would have made very good time ! By the time we had figured out that our comedy SAT-NAV had taken us astray we had driven about an hour !

We asked the guy on the toll booth for directions, and he answered in perfect English and gave us a lovely route off the motorway and through the mountains.

We arrived at the campsite a lot later than planned to find K&V, who had left 2 hours after us, all set up and drinking a cool beer.

I MUST BUY BETTER MAPS !!!!!

Sunday 28th May

PLITVICE LAKES

Words fail me, this is right up there with my favourite places in the world !  Check out the waterfalls in the photo below……..

This is a national park with many laid out trails

It was a Sunday, and in hindsight we should have waited to visit until Monday as it was very busy!

We walked for 6 hours, and around every corner was another sight to take your breath away.

There comes a time when you run out of superlatives!

As with Lake Bled, the colours don’t look real!

I wish we could have had a swim in the crystal-clear water (which is apparently so pure that it’s drinkable), it would certainly have been refreshing.

This place is so beautiful……

I think we might have to come back to this place………

Maybe tomorrow ?

and I’ll bring my big camera, and hopefully get some better shots !
