• From Biokovo to Buzet

    22–23 oct., Croacia ⋅ 🌧 17 °C

    We were sad to leave Biokovo yesterday to make the longish drive back up to north Croatia. Even the young girl that looked after the campsite had a tear in her eye as I gave her a bunch of flowers to say thanks for being kind & helpful (she was probably thinking thank christ they are off at last) 🤣 It was raining most of the way, but the drive was made more bearable by the stunning colours of the countryside. We are now camping in a small Istrian hilltop village called Roc. The site has stunning views apparently but we haven't been able to see them yet because it has been covered in cloud and raining cats & dogs since yesterday evening. In fact it is raining so hard on the caravan roof now, it is giving us a headache 😵‍💫 This afternoon we drove to the nearest big town, Buzet, which is famed for its truffles. Another hilltop location, it attracts coachloads in the summer but today it was empty and mostly closed! We had a wonder about and a nice lunch. We also came across an off-road trials meet up - if they didn't get muddy enough on a normal day, today was certainly going to test them!Leer más
