We made it on time to our Krka (yes, that is how you spell it, and there is no vowel between the K and R), waterfall excursion. We even had time for Whit to stop at a bakery to get breakfast since she had accidentally eaten her muffin the night before.
Our tour guide was very animated the entire way to the park. and when he wanted to wake us up when we arrived at our destination (not that I was sleeping after the four hours of quality sleep I had), he would say "coo-kah-lee-coo" in a sing songy voice. I am not a fan of waking up, so if I have to open my eyes, that was a fun way to do it.
The waterfalls were amazing. And I hate the word "amazing", but they really were. We got to swim right next to the falls. Hooray for lower safety standards than the US! We walked the loop back to the bus from the falls, and the whole park was absolutely gorgeous and breathtaking. It was one of the most beautiful things I have ever seen, and I'm married to John so that is saying something.
We returned to the bus and stopped at the Visovak island monestary. So cool!
Our third stop was another part of the waterfall park. We had lunch at a little place in the park where the owner makes his own meat, cheese, and wine. Be still my heart. It was so good. We also played in the waterfalls there, including our own little waterfall jacuzzi. It was exactly like Sports Illustrated.
Our last stop was the town of Sibenik, which was very cute, but after swimming in waterfalls all day a little underwhelming. BUT, we found our dream gelato shop with ALL of our favorite flavors. A highlight not to be overlooked.
We are professional tourists. We took this picture for our promotional brochure.
