Internet access again...Yea!

This computer was a little crazy, so the pictures are out of order. Here are a few from our 'adventures' from the last few days!

Dinner with our group in Novigrad.

One picture of the many breath taking sunsets we have enjoyed over looking the Adriatic Sea.

Krista and Renee feel very lucky to be traveling with a wonderful group of people of varying ages and backgrounds. Here are just a few who we ate dinner with last night while enjoying the beautiful sunset in Zadar. We have also sampled many beers, wines, raku (like a brandy that is drank before every lunch), and of course gelato.

We went kayaking on the Adriatic Sea. Krista and Renee strongly man handled all of the ferocious waves and strong winds that they encountered. During our tour around an island, we almost went blind while catching a glimpse of a full moon from a 70 year old wrinkled man who was sunbathing nude on his boat.

This is a glamorous picture of Krista and I about midway through our 10.5 mile hike in Paklenica National Park. This was taken after a 2 mile portion that was straight up hill. We ate a delicious dutch oven lunch created by a local man over looking this beautiful park.

Krista and Renee spent the day kayaking down white water rapids in a two person kayak. Krista started off the journey by taking the pair from shore to shore! Don't worry, we got to know the bushes quite well! After about 20 minutes, Krista graciously handed over the steering reigns to Renee!

Brave dear Krista, went for a swim (also known in Wisconsin as a Polar Plunge) in the frigid, roaring river behind the primitive village we stayed in for 2 nights. Only a few other brave souls went for a swim here (Renee was not one of them....).

We biked through the beautiful country side near Korana, Croatia. On our tour, we stopped at Barac's cave. After visiting the cave, we continued to ride our bikes through a torrential down pour to our lunch provided by a local. After lunch we continued our bike ride through the rain like women warriors would (the majority of our group rode back in the vans) to our village. Renee continued farther past the villa up to an overlook of the waterfalls in Plitvice National Park. Little did she know it would torrential down poor again or that the entire group would be driven to this look out point the next morning in the gorgeous sunshine.

Here is a view overlooking one of the main waterfalls in the Park. When the sun hits it just right the water looks emerald green and saphire blue.

We visited Plitvice National Park which was filled with gorgeous waterfall after waterfall. Krista was in heaven here and filled her camera memory card while going through on about a 6 mile hike around the park.
