Day 8

Left this beautiful island and ate at our favorite little bakery in split that is owned by a super cool young couple we became friends with. Definitely the only tourists on the island at the time. The place was deserted. Really cool in a way but almost haunted like. For instance there was only one restaurant open. Kind of neat though. Meant we had the whole place to ourselves.

I wish I could have gotten more pictures of Croatia. SO MANY ROCKS. Our taxi driver said if you want any land you have to fight the rocks for it. And there were piles of rock everywhere. The more dedicated ones had built them into fences, but most let them lay in piles between their vineyards.

As we got out of split, the countryside took on a desert feel. Think southwest america. Then on to Slovenia. Ps. These photos are not photo shopped

We were driving over that bridge when we saw this inlet whose magnetic force swept us off the highway and into its arms.

Rural Croatia, the part closer to Slovenia.

Spring fed little something that made us hit the brakes.

The town we stayed at for night. A lake with a church in the middle that is only accessible by boat. Is that cool or what. I thought it was pretty now, but would love to return to some of these places in summer.

Supper.

Late night ice cream we couldn’t resist.

This was another church lit up on the shore. The lit up castle standing guard on top of the cliff didn’t hurt the scene either.
