Maria & Brett's HUGE Trip 06-07-08-09-? ok, so the Socceroos lost in 'that' penalty against Italy; Adriatic summers aren't long enough (bliss!); and we found that you should never use the term "Eastern Bloc" when talking to a Czech (Central Europe, please).

Croatia - Road Trip

CROATIA | Monday, 24 July 2006 | Views [431]

In a land of lunar-like landscapes, it was always a treat to drive almost literally into these gorgeous lakes. When the car is hissing from the heat you could almost believe that the car was driving itself towards these lakes, or 'jezera'.

Driving near Bosnia we passed about 4km of these roadside stalls. Not unusual except for the exceptional olive oil they sell, and the way that they pump water from the irrigation systems behind them to spray over their piles of watermelons in fountain-like fashions. Passing waterfall stalls like these every 15 metres can transport you to another time, or world, or just Bosnia perhaps!

We would say this was 'typical' Dalmatian scenery, but it was more spectacular than anything else.
