Croatian Coast
During the last week in June, our fab foursome (Binsey, Mike and me) rented a car and drove to Krk, Croatia for a long weekend. This is a popular holiday island just off the coast of Croatia - connected to the mainland by a bridge, which made our drive there quite easy. The only challenge was that we didn't arrive until 2 a.m. and had to go on a scavenger hunt with a bad map through the city to find our accommodation. We rented an apartment in Krk City, which was just a few minutes walk from both the beach and downtown and had a great balcony where we ate all of our meals.
Like the picture above, the island has beautiful valleys and rocky coasts, where we spent the majority of our time between thunderstorms. When we weren't on the beach, we enjoyed some fresh sea food, walked around the old, stone city center and ate lots of gellato. We all agreed that we should permanently relocate there.
We took a day trip from Krk City to Baska, another beautiful coastal town pictured above and below.

Tomorrow I head back to Colorado for the next month to prepare for the wedding and spend some time with friends and family, which also may mean there will be a pause in the blog, but it'll be back come September.
