edpaffjr.comThe second to last stop on our cruise was in Split, Croatia. As mentioned in this planning post, we participated in our only cruise sponsored excursion of the trip, an Off Road Safari. On this trip we took turns driving manual transmission Land Rovers through the countryside, to the top of mountains, along the Cetina River, and through twisting village roads. We also were fed twice with some traditional, but still familiar, foods that were very enjoyable. We also got to jump into the frigid waters of the Cetina and have great views of the entire area. Though we had nothing to compare it to, everyone we were with said it was the best excursion they had done, and some folks did an excursion at every stop.
After the excursion was over, we took some time to explore the town of Split and especially see parts of Diocletian’s Palace. We didn’t have time to go into any of the buildings, but it was still interesting to see more ancient structures and compare them to the others we had already seen at other stops. Overall, we felt that Croatia was a beautiful country that was not nearly as touristy as other spots, and we would love the chance to go back and do more adventurous activities.
I like the picture of you and Kim at Omis… looks like a fun and adventurous stop!
