Ach Chorwacja!

Day 296 - Split Personality
... risk of renting a car with a group of classmates and driving it through eastern Europe to land on the shores of Croatia. Split has changed quite a bit since then and so have I. The town is almost unrecognizable, walking amidst the now crowded ...
Last day sailing the Adriatic Sea

Splitting up with my Camera
... know and they dont is that aside from a fantasic view of the city, theres a tiny zoo at the top! A zoo, in Split. I wont go into details because it was a rather depressing endeavour to see abandoned-looking animals in stone enclosures with nothing to do. ...

Split into Croatia
Croatia is a place that has long been known as a vacation spot for Europeans, but is relatively unknown to Americans. Who knows why as it seems to have all the ingredients that vacationers require: sun, sea, coast, food, history, cobblestone steets, ...

... , when at the information booth (a miracle we found that at all as well) told us that only two of the sphinxes remained in Split -- one was under renovation and could not be seen, and the other had been moved far outside the city. Great. In ...
Croatia
... town of Split. The landlady is garbling what might appear to the untrained ear to be a string of insults, but after a few days in Croatia we take this to be 'earnestness'. Eoghan answers her tirade once in a while with a random word now and again (Helen's ...
Croatia The Gorgeous
... the ferry to Korcula (Yes Dave a real Fairy) until 5pm so we booked our bags at the bus station and went exploring Split. Who would have thought Croatia was so great. It's like I was expecting Rome to be. The old city is encolsed by roman walls from 3 ...

Everlasting Night...
... FREE public bathroom!! Okay, so maybe the door was just broken, but it was what it was so there, there is hope for Croatia afterall. We settled down on one of the many benches looking out onto the sea, amidst benches occupied by couples and the homeless ...
"Hey Lady, do you need a room?"
... we caught an early bus to Zadar, the scenery on the way down was beautiful. The road followed the coastline all the way down. Croatia is a lot more arid than I thought it was - with white rock hills with a little speckling of vegetation here and there. ...
A Makeshift Home in Split

Old and new....
... also. This appears to be a major launch point for many of the skippered and bareboat charters that cruise Croatia's coastline and 1,200 islands. The Adriatic is crystal clear, despite some questionable discharge we viewed from a pipe right in ...
