Quincy Senior Trip: Krka National Park, Croatia

 




Krka National park was up next after our morning in old town and the Diocletian palace. This was our pit stop en route to the village of Rastoke. 

The cool thing about this park was the boardwalk trail anll the way around the falls. It reminded me of a massive version of Osage park marshy lake boardwalk trails…but with rushing waterfalls all around. It was mid day so a bit touristy but so pretty. We loved our nature walk, ate gelato (everywhere. I think we had gelato 8 or 9 times on the trip) sandwiches, salad and crepes. 

Here’s the view from the top of the hike. The pics with Reese’s arm outstretched are when we were on that bridge  shown below. 


I tried to feed a swan and it bit me. It didn’t hurt but we did laugh about it, 

A very cool cave. Literally. Like blowing springs!  Bella vista and Croatia both boast karst caves, cicadas chirping, lush thick forest trails, lakes, and humidity. We felt right at home in the national parks. We are lucky to live in such a pretty place.  

The water there though…it’s SO clear. You see way into the depths of lakes and have an aquarium view of the ecosystem, 




We found a late dinner in Rastoke at the only place open…a really yummy pizza bistro. With legit actual pepperoni (this is an off find in Europe. They do pizza well but not pepperoni) it was wood fired and super delish.
