Day 27 (Rovinj)
Today is rainy and looks to be a lazy day. Staying in Rovinj has really helped to reset us as we were getting tired. It might just be a TV day. We talked yesterday about just getting a pizza a bringing it back to the apartment. Since it is wet outside I suspect that the…

Day 26 (Rovinj)
It was a nice quiet night without the Beast. We both slept good and feel rested, finally. The weather is 68 and no wind. Sounds like a good day to satisfy the swim. If I get stung by a jellyfish then at least I get a free drink. Fingers crossed! A few minutes later Lori…

Day 25 (Rovinj)
It is a beautiful morning! 55 degrees with a light wind and not a cloud in the sky. All kinds of boats are cruising by our window and it is really beautiful! Today we plan to explore more of the town and its alley ways. We started out along the marina and realized that it…

Day 24 (Rovinj, Croatia)
I blocked off most of the light entering the apartment so that we could sleep in this morning. We were awaken to the beast upstairs running around above us at 7:30 this morning. We were obviously lied to in the reviews about this place being quiet. I will say that it is a really nice…

Day 23 (back to Rovinj)
We are headed back to Rovinj today for a 4 day immersion. Since we can’t check in until 3pm we got a late checkout. Noon was all they would give us. Breakfast was the same as it has been the last 4 days. We are kind of sick of it at this point. Lori is…

Day 22 (On the road again)
Today was a slow start. We wanted to rest today but it was raining so we opted to drive to Rovinj where the weather looked better. It is about 1.5 hrs drive but is on our list of places to visit. The town is a walking only town so you have to park your car.…

Day 21 (Road trip to Pula)
Breakfast was uneventful. We arrived early and had a pretty good selection of chow including donuts. We are renting a car for the next 2 weeks and are picking it up today at 11am. The pickup location is about 2 miles away so we called an Uber. Hopefully I will not forget my train lessons.…

Day 20 (Day of Rest, Icici)
Today we got a late start and almost missed breakfast. We walked in to see that the buffet was a little lacking today. As I worked my way down the cases of disheveled food I spotted a lonely donut with chocolate filling spewing out. Obviously over stuffed with deliciousness. Ignoring everything around me I focused…

Day 19 (Opatija, Croatia)
We woke up to something bright shining through the cracks in our curtains. The sun was not something that we have seen for about a week so it was a process to slowly open the curtains a little at time. It already feels like it is 80 degrees out there and it is mostly sunny.…

Day 18 (Train to Rijeka, Croatia)
We are now getting really good at train travel and I can feel the stress reducing. It is still there but not at the level that it was. I took pictures of the tickets just in case there is no internet. I have the seat reservation ticket in hand and we are ready to board.…
