“We live for each other…”

-







Mama: We woke up early for a tour into Montenegro! The guide’s driving was a little nerve-wracking. But it was to get across the border as soon as possible. (When we came back the line must have been four hours long!!) It was a nice excursion, but the coastal towns are all starting to look the same. We toured a rock church and made it back to Dubrovnik to see the sun set from the top of the mountain! 

Papa: The drive felt like nascar! And the border wait was long. The church and the walled city were really interesting. The lunch was terrible. The kids found 100 more stores. The view of Montenegro was amazing! As was the view of Dubrovnik from the top of the mountain. 

Bud: The tour guide was really nice. We boated out to a church. Getting up early was painful. But I’m glad we didn’t have to sit in the car for hours. Montenegro was really pretty and there was another walled city. When we got back we went up in a cable car. 

Bun: I didn’t like getting up so early, but the tour was worth it. The church was fascinating. There was a shipwreck and people thought it was god that saved them, so they built a church. They threw rocks in the water for decades until there was an island. Then they built the church. We got ice cream, it was great. There are a LOT of cats. One peed on Mama’s bag yesterday. The cable car was amazing. The city in lights was cool. Mama made us take 100 pictures.

The Eye of the Earth!

  Mama: Good-bye Korčula! We packed up the car and plotted the road to the Eye of the Earth - a really cool freshwater spring - at Bud’s request. And after one ferry, two giant bridges, seven u-turns and 200 km, we arrived! It was really cool. And really cold!! It was unexpected, but was probably 5 C! We checked it out and then split for Split! (Great mama joke!) Papa: Google maps has not perfected Croatia. The highways were great, but as soon as you exited, all bets were off! The eye was cool, but definitely needed a drone. It was nice to get to Split. We arrived and unloaded and then found a delicious Indian restaurant in the old town.  Bud: It was a really long and tiring car drive, but it was worth it to see the eye! We don’t know why, but the spring was really cold! Colder than the hotel pool. We weren’t allowed to swim in the spring, but I don’t know if we would have anyway. It was that cold! It was nice to get to our hotel in Split.  Bun: It was a long day in the c...

Rome then Home!

Mama: We packed up and said good bye to Croatia! The flight was quick and on time. We landed in almost 40 degree heat! It cooled down a tiny bit and we walked for pizza and a quick look at the Colosseum! Kinda bonkers.  Papa: We can see the Colosseum from the hotel. That’s pretty cool.  Bud: I’m excited to something new! The Colosseum is pretty crazy. I can’t wait to see inside.  Bun: Going to Rome is super exciting because one of my friends did her expository on Rome and she was right! I love it in Rome, even though it’s hot 🥵.

“Hiking in the foothills of mount Tibidabo...”

Mama: Clearly Joey Tribbiani has never been to the foothills of mount Tibidabo. We decided to hike instead of take the funicular. It was supposed to be 20 minutes, but with the unmarked path and useless Google directions, it was closer to 90!! But there was some stunning views. We went to the Tibidabo Amusement Park and then home to get ready to leave.  Bud: I got to go on the bumper cars! And we got to hike up a mountain and we got candy. The bumper cars were so fun! Bun: We got to go on Farris wheel. It was so fun! We even got to go on a merry go round. Me and daddy did a bubble hairdo for Bud!
