Thoughts on Croatia
This country isn’t a secret to Europe, everyone seems to go here for Holiday, it probably won’t be long before Americans start understanding what the fuss is about. I’ve heard Americans who have been say, “it’s the place that you think you only need a week for, but once you’re there, you need two.” So true.
Here are my ten favorite things about Croatia:
1. Crazy beautiful. The mountains, the turquoise waters and waterfalls of Plitvice, the drive from Orabic to Dubrovnik, the view from our hotel in Hvar, the entire country is amazing.
2. Rivas. Basically promenades along the harbor with lots of cafes to drink beer and coffee and eat gelato/ice cream.
3. Josep the driver from Orabic to Dubrovnik
4. Dubrovnik. One of the most charming towns in the world. And that’s even with all the tourists.
5. Café Bruz… both of them. I can’t imagine a better place for a drink at sunset.
6. Croatian humor. Notably, Josep and the waitress in Korcula.
7. Croatian Coffee in general. No need for a starbucks in Croatia. They have cafes every 2 feet.
8. Gas stations along the sea with cafes. It makes stopping for gas something to look forward to.
9. Nights in split. Hanging out in the square listening to a girl cover American pop hits or a three string players playing songs I don’t know, surrounded by old stuff. Very Cool.
10. Dubrovnik. What is not to love about a city that revolves around strolling, cafes, drinking and eating?
I guess now we're off to Greece.
