It...Read this update October 19, 2004Picture Perfect PiranPiran is picture perfect! It's a place where movies are made about Americans escaping the hustle and bustle to an exotic little European coastal village, or where foreign films of old fishermen and traditional Adriadic/Slovenian culture are born. That said,...Read this update October 18, 2004On the Road AgainYikes. Just arrived from Trieste, Italy to Piran, Slovenia. I haven't been doing much the past few days. Just walking around by the water, eating. Saw a crappy aquarium. Dr. Kristine Hecker got to be a little too much so...Read this update October 17, 2004ToiletsI thought Italian culture was supposed to be so classy... the cafe's, the language, the amazing food and wine.... So what's up with this toilet basin-type thing that is completely sunk into the floor? There is no bowl, nothing to...Read this update October 16, 2004Ahhhh, VeniceWow. Venice. Beautiful, lovely, romantic. It takes your breath away the minute you walk out of the train station to the Grande Canal. The canal waters sparkle in the sun like a thousand diamonds awaiting to be discovered. The small...Read this update October 15, 2004DreamsMy dreams have taken a turn for the interesting. I no longer dream of life back in the States... work... family (no offense, guys).... house issues, etc. Don't get me wrong, every once in a while I will have dreams...Read this update October 14, 2004TriesteDay 44 Train Stations 13 Bus Stations 11 Ferries 2 Currency Exchanges 6 Today was interesting. We left Pula for Trieste at 6:00 AM (ouch) and traversed three different countries all before 9:00 AM. From Croatia, through Slovenia, to Italy....Read this update October 13, 2004PulaI know that as travellers, we go to all the touristy places. It is actually quite a disgrace being seen as a "tourist" as opposed to a "traveller" in this little network of round the world travellers. But I personally...Read this update October 12, 2004Travel Day6:30 AM... ouch... and I am on a ferry back to Split. This ferry is a katamaran... it's layout is like an airplane with passenger seating... only no flight attendants and no beverage service. Here's another funny, though. Here are...Read this update October 10, 2004Hvar IslandI am on Hvar Island, the island that is said to receive more sunshine than any place in Europe... something like 3000 hours of it annually.

I am seeing a different side of Croatia right now. Don't get me wrong, the countryside is beautiful, it is just that the bus has gone through an area where the...Read this update Continuation of A DaySo we start walking down the road to a village... we have no idea how far away it is, but start seeing houses within the first 15 minutes of walking so it seemed promising. There were people here and there,...Read this update A Day to Remember or Forget?So I should have known that when the day began with a mouse in the bungalo that it would spark a chain reaction of crap. We woke up that morning around 9:00 AM, the alarm didn't go off, and were...Read this update There's Something in the Bungalo!It's like 5:30 AM, still dark out, and there is something alive in the bungalo. Something bigger than a moth, smaller than a dog. It was in the trash can, so Mike got up and threw the garbage out. Even...Read this update October 06, 2004Plitvicka National ParkDay 36 I am currently in one of the most beautiful places in the world!
