On the road again and this time our stop was in Croatia. We stayed on the Istrian peninsula in the town of Porec. This stop was about taking a break from the car at out halfway point. The kids dove into the Adriatic and, snorkeling gear on, explored the underwater world.
Dinners were easy overlooking the sea and the sunset. A little prosceco didn't hurt either.
These southern countries love their traditional liqueurs - here it was schnapps. The restaurant didn't ask IF we wanted our free shot but rather WHICH type we wanted. They even have "kinderschnapps" which the kids loved.
The next day we took a lunch boat cruise to visit two other places along the coast. Rovnij was the first stop.
Boat cruises were big business there are many different companies operated similar routes, but it didn't feel too crowded. This was our boat.
The water was so clear. the kids enjoyed watching the seagulls feet paddling away under the water, and the fish circling just below (all hoping for hand outs from the lunch cruises).
For the last bit of the trip the kids all scrambled up to the bow to watch the harbour as we pulled in.
And, as if trying to out do herself, Mother Nature gave us an even more spectacular sunset for dinner that night.
