JK, Sept 20 2010: Something I have meaning to write about, and which we anticipated prior to the trip, is the experience of travelling by train. While a first class Euro-Rail pass by no means guarantees first class travel, we are at present enjoying such, in a quiet cabin shared with two Aussies, Tim and Jess.
The views of Croatian countryside are pastoral and extraordinary. Small white farm houses with red clay tiled rooftops; fields of corn swathed in mist; hills of gold, brown and green ferns mottled, flashing in the sun. Many rivers here are flooded.
