Today we headed to Plitvice National Park in central Croatia. It is the oldest and largest national park in Croatia, founded in 1949. We were here in mid-November with daytime temps in the 40s and a layer of fog that didn’t let up all day. So thick jackets and real Read more…

After visiting Krka National Park, we retreated to Split again because the weather was not cooperating. After a week of waiting for a nicer weather window, we headed back out with sights set on Zagreb and Plitvitce National Park. Hmmmm, not the sunny skies we were hoping for. Haha. Whenever Read more…

My family owns a few small plots of land with olive trees in the little village of Zastražišće on the island of Hvar in Croatia. The sleepy village really comes back to life this time year with an influx of family and friends helping with the harvest. This is the Read more…
A 7-hour ride on the ferry got us to Crete just before midnight. We slept at the ferry dock so Luka could ride his new birthday scooter the next morning. After a quick ride and some breakfast, we started our day with an adventure. Down a dirt road we go Read more…

After camping near a shipwreck, we made our way towards Kalamata for a couple reasons. One is to figure out if taking a ferry to the island of Crete is feasible by visiting a ticket office in Gythios and another is to meet up with our traveling friends. We ended Read more…
