After visiting the Plitvice lakes national park we finally arrived in Zagreb in the evening. Tania had read about this museum she wanted to go to, the Broken Relationship Museum, and it was going to close soon, so we headed that way. Visually, Zagreb is a mixture of straight-laced Austro-Hungarian architecture and rough-around-the-edges socialist structures, its character…

What The Hell Is A Sea Organ?
We continue our journey through Croatia with a really quick stop in the town of Trogir. This town was recommended by a couple of people we’ve met along the way so we had to check it out. The historic city of Trogir is situated on a small island between the Croatian mainland and the island…
Pakleni Islands And The Blue Cave
Today we took a fast boat to take us to the world famous Blue Cave! This natural wonder cave is a must see for every tourist visiting Croatia. The full day tour included many stops in several of the 1246 total islands in Croatia. But because all looked the same, there was a sense of…

Our original plan was to book a boat with more people, but because we had to take a ferry to Split that…
Pearl Of The Adriatic
