Croatia

We’d always heard how glorious Croatia was and visiting there cemented this fact in our minds. We have fond memories of our times, traveling to different cities, taking ferries to the islands, and visiting the national parks. It’s one of our favorite places on this earth!

Our Visit


We loved our time in Croatia! It has been on our bucket list for twenty years, and finally, we made it to this beautiful country. We spent a month here, and in every city, we enjoyed something different. In Zagreb, John ran the half marathon. He wasn’t the fastest, but he had the most fun!
