Split, an Island, and a taste of Dubrovnik

The bus I caught from the waterfalls ended up being a regional slow-moving one. Its route took it down rural roads and through small villages. The up side of which was an exceptional view of the Croatian countryside. The downside of which was an added hour plus to the bus ride. After four hours…

Croatia: Zagreb & the Lakes and Waterfalls of Plitvicjka Jezera
