Croatia

Home again after 4 amazing weeks in Croatia. I did a lot of building on the summer house during these weeks and its was worth every minute, the house is looking great.
Of course I also had time for a week of just pure holidays.
During the last week in Croatia couple of friends visited and of course we wanted to both explore but also show some of our best places. One of the places we visited was neighboring Montenegro and the city of Herzeg Novi with its rather nice old town. We have actually never been there ourselves before so it was a bit of a gamble, and surely there is a difference between Croatia and Montenegro, the later being more worn and generally messy.
Another excursion was of course to Dubrovnik with its wonderful old city. While the others were exploring the city (we had been there countless times) me and the wife spent most of the day in a coffee shop watching tourists. To be fair we ate few scopes of ice cream too, which is highly recommended! :)

Beside that, we did some wine tasting on the Peljesac peninsula (known for its strong red wines, mainly Dingac), lots of bathing and eating.
4 weeks passed by too fast as usual.

    ps Har du nåt tips på hur man fotar stjärnor? Förstår att man behöver stativ..men vad mer?.
    Vad behöver man för objektiv...? Har nämligen tappat bort mitt 18/55 och ska köpa ett nytt...ds

  6. Dottern kom hem från Kroatien, helt lyrisk över naturens skönhet där. Kan man ju oxå se på dina bilder, Grattis till skottet på ugglan. En blyg fågel som försiktigt tittar fram under grenarna; ett sånt fynd!
