We headed off for Croatia from Italy and all was going smoothly until about 10km from the Slovenia/Croatia border. A massive 10km bank up of cars, motor homes, caravans right up to the border. This 10km section took about 90 minutes! We could have walked it quicker! - on reflection, it was a Saturday and in peak holiday season. Anyway once over the border we headed off to our first stop, Rovinj.
We stopped here in our motor home back in 2010 and couldn't resist returning. These pics show why:
the stunning old town...
the numerous inviting, beautifully decorated cafes...
Here is the apartment block we stayed in...
you wouldn't necessarily have expected it but it looked great inside. It was very nicely renovated and the location was faultless - 5 mins walk to a multitude of bars, cafes and restaurants, 10 mins to the old town.
From our little balcony we also had our own version of a Tennessee Williams play to watch...
Our next stop in Croatia was Dramalj (near Crikvenica). Our AirBnB place was amazing. Here is the view of the sea and the island of Krk from our terrace (the garden isn't too shabby either)...
We drove over to Krk island for the day and here's our coffee stop in Stara Baska...
and the view back to Dramalj from the Krk village Silo...
wow , stunning.
