Passport Views

What a menu   For our last day in Croatia, we had breakfast, walked to an overlook and then went to the mall. I know what you are thinking - why a mall? I will get to that in a bit, but let's go to breakfast first. After packing and loading the car, we made a trek back to Ciri Biri Bela for breakfast. This place is an oasis from the heat of the streets, with shaded courtyards in front and back. We sat in the shade out back as we leisurely enjoyed another great meal. It was so relaxing. Love the food For one last view of Split, we took a short stroll to Prva Vidilica Na Marjanu for a nice panorama of the city. From the port to the hills surrounding the city, you could see it all. Another great opportunity to add to the collection of photos and experiences from our trip. After picking up the car, it was off to ... the mall! Why a mall? Well, when you have an hour or so to burn before heading to the airport, what better place could there be? We needed to burn thro...

WOW! I am not even going to start with any cute sayings or introductions. Today was a great way to visit another seaside city south of Split while enjoying the natural beauty that is Omis. As we approach the end of our Adriatic Adventures, our trek today was a first for all of us. Today was all about zip lining through the Cetina River valley. We also mixed in some beach time as well as some great food and walking around Omis. The zip lining was amazing! Michelle lead our pack on the first (and longest) run and I have included video of each of us zipping along. It was, as I have overused throughout this trip, simply STUNNING! I finished things up on the first run Following our time zipping down the valley, we wandered down the road a bit to a great rock beach. The water felt so refreshing on such a sunny day. Of course, we were then in search of a light dinner. Heading back to Omis Our beach visit Looking back to Omis We strolled back into ...

I know I keep promising short posts, but then ramble on for a few extra paragraphs. Well, today I am going to hold myself to that standard and let the photos do the talking.  Today was a big one and the number of photos we took proves that point. We took off early this morning to drive the two and a half hours to Plitvice National Park. The park is full of waterfalls and was an absolute must do on our list. We walked the trails and took so many photos to capture the wonder of it all. Other than the waterfalls we saw trout, frogs, ducks, lizards and even part of a snake that was heading back to safety into it’s nest. We also ran into a family from Minnesota and noticed their @mnufc gear, so we shared a #ScarvesUpMN moment.  Now on to the main event - the photos from Plitvice National Park.
