Falkensteiner Family Hotel Zadar

... na Starym Miescie, apartament z tarasem i widokiem na dachy...a wieze - na wyciagniecie reki! I chmury... gdyby byly ;))
Witaj, Zadar!
Witaj slonce, mimo pierwszych chlodow.
No coz, kapac sie juz nie bedziemy, ale za to - jest co ogladac!
Bedziemy tu do piatkowego poranka, kiedy wyruszymy w strone Vesprem na Wegrzech, a stamtad: kierunek dom :))

Here are some pics of Pisa's only real site tourists. I learned that the tower is actually a campanile and I had to dig further to figure out what in the world that means. Actually campanile is just a fancy word for bell tower, so why can't people just call it what it is so I don't have to ask around what all these big words mean?

This marvel of 12th Century engineering was begun on August 9, 1173 and took 177 years to complete. Let's think about this a ...

... les gourmands il y a de quoi faire, avec une moyenne d'un glacier toutes les 3 boutiques. Par contre il a beau être 22h, il fait encore chaud et nous devons nous dépêcher d'engloutir notre cornet avant de nous faire crépire les chaussures.

Sur le front de mer, nous découvrons une sculpture extraordinaire (construite en hommage au ...

... 25km sur 3km. Aucune plage à l'horizon, que des falaises tombant à pic!

Notre bâteau navigue le long de ce parc magnifique bordé par une eau cristaline. Après 3h de trajet, nous débarquons dans une baie à l'extrémité de l'île de Dugi Otok, dans le parc naturel de Telascica. Refuge de nombreux bâteaux, le parc est protégé par une haute falaise et se compose de mini-baies.
Nous suivons ...

Continuing on 16 June…we officially were allowed to extend our stay for two more nights, and we reserved spots for the Kornati Islands tour as well. Our day in town was pretty uneventful, although we got some more delicious Croatian/Italian food (and varying kinds of gelato) and Brittany and I went to the archaeological museum and did some souvenir shopping. She’s been having trouble finding a pin for Croatia…they have every other kind of souvenir imaginable, but ...

... it is due - INCREDIBLE.
After walking through the whole park and getting lost on the tail end of the trail, we headed for the bus stop back to Zadar. Unfortunately our luck coming back wasnt much better than getting there and the bus came 15 minutes early and whizzed by without even stopping. So, this time around we spent the 2.5 hours till the next bus at the park beer house which made for an interesting ...

... for arts and digestion. Exhibitions, performances, bar and restaurant, lounging, lunching and looking. Nice food. Shag in the harbour, some ferries and on the quayside a sea organ. Do not get exited, it was hardly visible above the surface, but we liked the sound. The waves empty and fill a number (35) of chambers that connect to organ pipes. Eerie sounds of an unpredictable nature. Nearby is an enormous circle on the pavement, twenty meters diameter ...

... during the day and met up with a cool couchsurfer named Valentina. She helped me to first buy my ferry ticket to Zadar, and then to go around and show me the small port city of Ancona. It was a nice, clean, and quiet city right on the Italian Adriatic coast, and the streets where all narrow and paved with cobblestone. I didn't have much time though, because before I knew it I was on the ferry (which is more like a mini-cruise boat) and on my way to Zadar.

... quiet and tranquility of the place was overwhelming. After about 55 minutes we stopped by the largest lake and then boarded a small boat which took us across to the other side. We then had a short rest at a picnic area before setting off again along the lower lakes. The waterfalls, though not huge or spectacular by themselves, built up to a cumulative effect that completed a vivid and beautiful picture. The water was crystal clear and we could ...

... autant visuellement que dans son ambiance. Les gens semblent a la fois dynamiques et profiter de la vie, et a la fois gris et las. C'est aussi une ville ou les grandeurs architecturales cotoient le beton sans verdure, ou la croissance economique semble etre partout, en ne touchant personne en particulier. Evidemment, n'y etant restee que peu de temps, mes perceptions sont peut-etre loin de la realite, mais j'aime croire que les premieres impressions ont toujours une part de verite.
