Water heaven!
Waterfalls, turquoise lakes and these fabulous boardwalks--wow! I've been to lots of travertine sites, but Plitvici Lakes was the biggest of all. Walking on the boardwalks was so magical--like walking on water and so close to the waterfalls! How great that you spent the whole day there!

My blogs as an inspiration...
Now that I've finished blogging my trip, I'm pleased that others have been inspired to visit this part of Europe. There is so much to see and do in such a small area that I strongly encourage you to do so.
