Day 16
Croatia - Plitvice to Slovenia - Predjama
Our morning was spent walking around the Plitvice National Park. Stunning. As we walked in the view and the thunderous noise of water was jaw dropping. Luckily we had left early, for once. We're usually last to leave camp but not I may add always the last to arrive. The bus loads of tourists had not arrived yet so we had unspoilt views of what lay in front of us. Standing high up looking down were striking aqua pools of water with wooden walk ways between them. Scattered around were different shapes and sizes of waterfalls from small trickling falls to huge cascading waterfalls. For me this was a photographic dream. For the boys they knew this would then mean lots of hanging about while I composed my shots.
We followed the path down and across the lake, with the depth of the water changing so did the depth of the aqua tone. We headed to the foot of the huge waterfall and the noise was deafening. The force of the water was
We enjoyed a boat across a lake time to reflect on the beauty before jumping back in the car.
We arrived late at the campsite because of our "tourist stop" . We haven't done much of this so it was refreshing to stop and be a tourist for once. Tim-Tom Satnav got us to our camp site but at the locked rear gate down a very narrow track. Once again we trusted Tim - Tom, we were there but just not at the point of entry. Lots of rain and the camping plots were on hard ground. Mission replacement airbed had failed once again so being a caring and loving wife I gave up my air bed for Nik. My ulterior motive was to sleep in the back Olly, where It would be warmer than it was last night and much dryer. Result it worked + brownie points added!
Where to tomorrow......................
