We now head to Croatia for 3 weeks; 2 weeks charter cruising and 1 week on a road trip ending in Slovenia. Follow this series of videos to experience all the historic locations along the Dalmation coast visiting the ancient fortresses and sampling the amazing mediterranean cuisine. #catamaransailing #sailinglife #croatiatourism #retirementtravel

Here is a sampling of the historical Old Towns we visited in Croatia. Check out the narrow cobblestone streets and fortress walls. Can you spot the film locations for Game of Thrones?

We stay off of the toll highways outside Ljubljana and enjoy the scenery through small villages along some really nice driving roads

Our last night in Croatia at one of the least expensive Inn stays but brimming with character and right in the heart of old town.

Our one and only night in Slovenia but what a nice place to explore and check out the old town area.

I admit I’ve butchered every Croatian name since I’ve arrived here, so our friend at the hotel was kind enough to help make some corrections in pronunciation…

We stay at the modern and tastefully appointed Plitvice Falls Cottages just outside the National Park.

We happen upon a Ferrari Convention in Trogir, Croatia… wow! Never seen so many in one place at a time.

Our final day in Trogir… spectacular view from the top of Kamerlengo Castle.

20 Euro human powered boat ride to the little island on Bled Lake with a great view of Bled Castle

We made it to our final destination in Ljubljana, Slovenia and visit the famous castle of the old city.

We visit Zadar on our land segment of our trip in Croatia. What a view!

We alter plans due to strong winds on the nose and end up in a much cheaper mooring on the opposite end of the island of Vis. Bonus!

We leave Dubrovnik and head back up north on the second week of our sailing adventure in Croatia. We have some nice conditions for sailing.

Our final destination for two nights before heading back to Trogir

Just before departure from Saplunara to Dubrovnik we take a dip

Leaving Korcula and heading to Pomena on Mljet Island

We climb the narrow streets of Korcula to the town square… Did you know that Marco Polo was born here?

We pull up beside the new Four Seasons Yacht in our modest little rental catamaran…
