Summer 2006

Considering it's now three months later I suppose I should probably sum-up the holiday then? Well dim the lights and commence the visual aids...

The Croatian coast near Rijeka. A pretty nice way to arrive I'm sure you'll agree! I shall gloss over the fact we were on a crappy coach heading away from this beautifulness. After a dispute with an angry Croatian coach driver we eventually managed to transfer and head on to Zagreb.

Possibly one of the best flags in the world. Can't remember who took this photo but the perspective is pleasing so well done. I remember there being a lot of security about when we took this possibly due to the fact its near a lot of important buildings, including:

It's just a shame I can't remember what its called. The roof rocks though.

One of my particular favourite things was the worlds smallest railway, seen here:

It takes 55 seconds to get from the bottom of the hill to the top. The hill isn't even that bad, its madness I tell you!

The benefit of being at the top is that you can take photos such as this:

Now the sightseeing is over its time for the fun stuff, namely:

beer

and icecream

oh yeah and paddling at the astoundingly beautiful Jarun - a man-made lake designed especially to host the 1987 World Student's Games. "The world student's games?" I hear you cry. I don't know either.

Anyway thats the Croatian highlights - think of the things I didn't have time or space to include! Such as the story of the gas-leak hostel, the dead wasp saga, many many churches and me paddling in a lake.

Oh alright then:
