Even when we booked our ferry from Zadar to Pula we had no idea what was in store for us in Pula except that we had an Air B&B apartment booked in the historic centre. As soon as we heard everyone ooh-ing and ah-ing we looked outside and from our seats on the ferry we […]

Croatia is home to two popular National Parks – plus six others! During our travels through the country, we were lucky to have the chance to spend a morning at the Krka National Park with young kids. When it came to picking between Krka or Plitvice, another well known destination, I opted for Krka, mainly […]

At the time we didn’t know what to do in Zagreb with kids but we soon discovered that it’s a city filled with great […]
The last month of our 148 day journey was totally a ‘fly by the seats of our pants’ kinda month. Ironically the only flying we did was into and out of Croatia as we relied on public transit within Croatia. We landed into Zagreb and flew out of Pula but took buses to Skradin and […]
The time had come for us to leave Croatia and head into Manchester, our VERY LAST city, and as we were looking on Skyscanner and Google Flights for the best deals, Skyscanner showed us that there was an airline called Eurowings.
