I really love this spot and being in no hurry to move on we had another day enjoying the scenery. After completing the van chores, I had a pamper with face mask, pedicure and washed my hair in the cold stream. We walked the pups and then later fashioned a double bungy lead to attempt …

175 – Krka National Park & a Sea Organ
We were up bright and early to drive to Krka National Park. During the winter only two of the trails are open so we plumped for the Skradinski Buk waterfall, which you can walk to from Lozovac. Tickets were 30 kuna instead of 200 in summer and parking is free. It’s a pleasant boarded pathway …
173 – Take the slow road
It can be tempting to take the fastest route, especially when the alternative is an hour slower but why drive on a motorway when you can wind through stunning inland scenery, villages and fortress ruins. November is rainy season and we have had a mix of downpours, drizzle and bright sunshine. While Mark described the …
172 – Plitvice Lakes aka heaven on earth
Today I’m largely going to let the photos do the talking. We drove to Plitvice National Park which is on the Croatia bucket list for many visitors with good reason – it is stunning! We opted for the green route C from the main carpark 1 which covers the great waterfall and both the upper …
168 – Baby wild boar and spectacular ceramics!
Quite often the highlight of our day is something completely unplanned and just a wonderful surprise. This morning we had a knock on our door at 7am, and a couple of builders asked if we could shuffle so they could park their work vans for a job opposite. We happily obliged (its illegal to wild …

166 – Cave Spa and beehive rocks
Starting your week, waking up next to two huge piles of dog puke is pretty grim…and also an illustration of my epic deep sleeping skills. Mabel stole some food yesterday so we are guessing it was her, but she seemed happier as the day went on. Big thanks to the hubby for clearing it up! …
165 – Quickest tour in town
Compared to Budapests 30+ minute bus/tram ride into the city, the smaller towns are so much easier in a motorhome. We had parked overnight 2 minutes walk from the centre of Eger, near a lovely park which was perfect for our morning dog walk. The pups were in crazy playful mode, rolling and ‘fighting’ in …
155 – Exploring nature on an adrenaline high
We took the pups for their morning walk around Levoca, and it’s true many of the buildings have embraced both colour and patterns. Though we saw even more brightly coloured houses, in electric blues, lime greens and pinks dotted in little villages on our drive to Paradise National Park. One thing that made me giggle …

154 – Autumnal Mountains, Castles and Geysers
Autumn has most definitely arrived, and how beautiful it is! This morning we drove into Slovakia towards stunning mountain ranges and had a lovely long walk in the Upper Tatras at Tatranska Lomnicka. As I was happily kicking my way through the leaves, I realised this is Ernests first Autumn. No wonder he is snuffling …
