Istria


A lovely Croatian peninsula in the Adriatic that borders Italy provided a great summer seaside getaway. Although we were there during the peak tourist season, which we usually try to avoid, we enjoyed our time in the old towns and waters that line the coast. From the Korzo pedestrian strip up the many steps to the Trsat Castle of Rijeka and the Triumphal Arch of Sergius and Roman Amphitheatre of old town Pula...the history of this place is simply amazing. Although the wild untouched areas seem to capture us most of the time, we found the architecture and energy of these places very captivating. We look forward to returning someday and exploring even more.
