Day 6

Once again we were up early to beat the tourists (we thought). But our guide, big H knew what he was doing and took us in the other direction, so we were always walking the opposite way as the walkways were only wide enough for single file each way.  Plitvice Lakes National Park is 19 hectares of wooded hills that surround 16 stunning lakes all connected by a series of waterfalls.  We were blown away by the scenery around every corner, the clear water, the stillness, the waterfalls, all so stunning.  We walked for 4hours and did 8kms around our circuit, there were many more trails we could have taken, one could spend a week in this beautiful spot. The tourists came in droves, mainly Asians and took photos galore, they are something else with the selfies.

We drove onto Zadar, a harbour city full of history.  On arriving we had a quick tour around part of the city which still had some of the old Roman walls.   We have a free day tomorrow so will make the most of the time we have to explore.
