More Split!

I guess by now you can tell that I really like Split so a few more pictures.  At the top of that hill there's a flag and some beautiful views.  It's a long walk but well worth it.Below is said flag and view.

Hiding on the Backstreets of Split

One of the things I really like about walking around cities in Europe is the streets and buildings bring you back in time. No place is this more evident than in old town Split where cars are neither allowed or would fit down these streets.

Split Croatia

I really didn't know much about Split before going there other than it's on the water and that's pretty much all it takes for me to decide that a place is worth visiting. Then to get there and find out that there were Roman buildings dating back to 300 AD made it even more incredible and beautiful. Split is across the Adriatic from Italy and was the site of Diocletian's Palace.  It still makes up the center part of the city and people live and work throughout it.

 More to come about Split later!

Leaving the EU


So we went to Split Croatia this weekend which was our first time out of the EU which meant one thing, passport control at the border.  Kind of lame, it's nice to go through countries like they are states back in the US but it was well worth it when you get views like the ones from below with lunch.  Much more on Split and the Adriatic coast later.
