Island Paradise

Island Paradise

Kornati Islands, Croatia Fair dues to His Lordship. I don’t know how he did it, but he has managed to persuade Her Ladyship to go on a boat trip to the Kornati Islands. To be honest, I don’t even care how he did it. The main thing is we’re going to spend all day on a ship in one of the most beautiful parts of the Adriatic. It doesn’t get much better than this! We set off at the crack…

Along the Adriatic Highway

Šibenik, Primošten, Trogir, Dalmatian Coast In between our numerous trips inland to the Krka National Park, we have been touring the Dalmatian coastline. And what a coastline it is. I have rarely seen a more picturesque location for a bus stop. I don’t think I would get very far in this part of the world if I had to rely on public transport.

It turns out that His Lordship, probably after seeing so many other guys on the campsite tinkering around with boats or setting up satellite dishes, has lost the run of himself completely. He decided…

Falling for Dalmatia

Skradinski buk, Krka National Park We’ve hit the road again, and what a road! Across Istria to Rijeka, then turning south down the Dalmatian coast. Motorway all the way, but if you have to take a motorway, take this one, the A one. I mean, the A1. The views are just lovely. They are particularly spectacular once we exit the Sveti Rok tunnel. We have great views of the coastline bathed in glorious sunshine. Soon afterwards, we spot some snow…
