Just wrapping up my 2nd full day in Croatia. Overall, a little underwelmed with Zagreb. Very small but cute city. We spent yesterday walking around the old part of the city looking at lots of interesting architecture, churches, and lots of cafes. We had a great dinner at a restaurant with a lovely patio that took over the whole street. Afterwards we went to a bar on the main street to sample Croatia's specialty beverage called Raijka (sp???). I am not really sure how to describe it except that it is a cross between a liquer and a shot. It is either sweet or strong and is apparently a bit of a home brew - alcohol infused with different flavours. Some were quite delish....others were not.
Today we went to a mountain just north of the city called Medvednica. We had a great hike for the first 2 hours but over estimated how long it would take us to reach the top (and the great restaurant that is up there) and our travel companion who Rebecca befriended on the bus into town. Needless to say it was slow going and we actually ended up hitching a ride the last couple of
Why we didn't climb the Eiffel tower
The first Sunday of every month is free day in Parisclicks.
Tonight we are off to Dubrovnik by plane (it is a short flight, only about 1hr) and from there we will slowly make our way back to Zagreb up the coast. Hoping to also make a day trip to Montenegro and or Bosnia.
Finally a few pictures from my trip! Sorry for not posting some earlier!!!
Miss you all lots!
