Time to leave the north and have a serine coastal drive. It’s quite nice - meandering down the coast - small coastal towns, harbours, mountains on one side and the sea on the other. If we could just get around this bus! And in only 3.5 hours later we are in the town...

I have discovered on this trip that I love truffles. I don't necessarily like paying for them, but I do love to eat them. So when we saw an opportunity to go truffle hunting, we couldn't pass up the opportunity. Our guide, Michael, and his two dogs, Mina and Roxy, led...

Who knew Pula had such an amazingly preserved Roman arena? We sure didn’t. Arriving shortly after 9am and we have the place basically to ourselves. Even when the first bus load of school kids arrive, it’s like we’re alone. Fun fact, it’s the only arena that still has...

You know the genius named Nikola Tesla? Yep. That guy. We went to the Nikola Tesla Memorial Center in the teeny town of Smiljan. This guy really was revolutionary. Our understanding of electricity and the way we use it today would not have been possible without his...

After all of yesterday's sitting around, it's time to get up off our butts and put some steps in. Luckily we are just 20 minutes away from Plitvice Lakes National Park which has all sorts of waterfalls, trails, trams & boats. We plan on seeing them all! Today's...

Here we are, Thanksgiving weekend without a turkey in sight. No complaints though, we have an abundance of fall colours to absorb and enjoy! Today was a very quiet day in comparison to the last few weeks. It was very welcomed. Time to leave the 'big city' of...

A full day in Dubrovnik and an ambitious full-pull schedule for us. Starting with walking the full perimeter of the Wall that has been protecting the city from invaders for centuries. The advice our tour guide gave us yesterday was to start atop the western section to...

We are firmly in Dubrovnik now. On our own. Nobody to hold our hands, nobody to guide us, nobody to tell us what to do or where to go. We wandered around like little lost lambs for a couple of hours before we gathered ourselves and found a direction. It ended up being...

It's our last day of cycling and today's ride is going to ease us into Dubrovnik being only 12kms and mostly flat. We get to ride through the last of the grape and olive fields for one final time until we reach our coffee stop in the Port of Suđurađ. What a quaint...
