With our Turkey and Croatia trip behind us, I asked my travelling companions to share some of their thoughts on this awesome trip we were just on. I sent them a list of questions so they could share their thoughts! Vino is first up! My Top 3 Highlights Highlight #1: Plitvice Lakes National Park Walking through Plitvice National Park.

Cruising to the Blue Caves

Morning came pretty quickly! In fact we got up a little earlier so that we could grab a quick breakfast before meeting the boat that would be taking us to the Blue Caves. We strolled into the center of town and we were treated to the beautiful seaside town that is Hvar Town! After grabbing breakfast, we walked over to the port/dock area where we waited to meet our boat. Gimpy had booked this Blue...

It was another beautiful...

Because of the way the streets are structured, it would have been...

It took us about an hour to arrive at the dock, where we grabbed our day bags and boarded the ship. It's a small boat with an open rear seating area, and a top and...

Walking around Cappadocia

Sunrise As a consolation for not having a hot air balloon ride, a few of us decided to wake up for sunset and take some photos of the sunrise in Cappadocia. We got up early and hung out at the top of our hotel terrace to wait for the sun to come up. The light started to appear and we started taking photos. It got a bit chilly and some of us retreated back to our rooms to catch a few more hours of...
