Now that we are in Croatia, the pace has definitely slowed down significantly. We don’t have any sightseeing planned and since we are going to be here for 6 weeks, we just want to take things slowly.
Our ‘distraction’ in France is finally over and for the next 6 weeks, we are headed to the Dalmatian Coast. Specifically, Split and the Island of Hvar in Croatia. Commonly referred to at our house as – ‘The Old Country’.
Our last full day in France started with the girls wanting in to Milica’s house. I am guessing they are trying to get their daddy more scotch for breakfast.
After yesterday’s non-stop action, today we are shifting gears a bit to enjoy the slower pace of life in the countryside of France. The girls started with a movie on the laptop while I recover from our marathon sightseeing venture on the bed.
Before you go on, I must warn you that this is a long post. It has almost 50 photos from our 4th day in France. Go grab a cup of coffee and a croissant and enjoy our second trip into Paris.
After spending yesterday as the dumb American tourists in France, today we have a much more welcoming agenda planned ahead of us. Courtesy of no one else but Teta Milica. She has planned for us to go visit her daughter, Marlene’s second cousin, at a real working countryside farm that’s been in her husband’s family for many generations.
Our first morning in France we awoke to breakfast already made for us. This is something we can get use to. Teta Milica does not mess around. There were fresh pastries and hot coffee as well as mini cereal boxes with milk for the girls. It was immediately clear that our usual pace of strolling around inside the Airstream wearing our pajamas ’til lunch was not going to fly here. Teta Milica means business and we already have a full day planned.
We are a young family traveling the country in our Airstream. To read more about us, click here.
