who doesn’t love being in nature?

a ferry trip to Dugi island to see the Telascica Nature Park was Wednesday’s activity, then we took the ferry back and drove to Plitvice Lakes National Park where we stayed the night.

the nature park is unique, as it has nice beaches on one side, and steep cliffs on the other, it’s quite the change in terrain as you make the walk from the top to the bottom of the trail.

accommodations were provided by the Hotel Jezero, which is what i would call a, “throwback” hotel. it’s in the park, and it’s quite large catering to the tour buses. it looks like it hasn’t been updated in awhile, and i don’t mean that in a bad way, but it felt like i was on a family vacation in 1973.

side note – i’m guessing you won’t be surprised to hear that even though i’ve been taking daily antihistamines and sleeping with the AC on (except at the Jezero, because they didn’t have it) that the humidity rash has appeared. sigh. thank goodness it’s fairly contained, but still…no fun.
