European Vacation Review: Croatia, Slovenia, Ljubljana, Rovinj, Dubrovnik, Hvar, Split, Plitvice Lakes National Park, Lake Bled

Seeing the cities and than the Plitvice National Park in Croatia was great fun and very interesting and beautiful. The drive to the park was much fun with a mix of highway and small very winding roads. Since I like to drive I fond this exciting and interesting. Some folks might not feel the same about the more "interesting" parts of the drive. I feel that driving allowed for a more intimate experience of the country. In Slovenia, Ljubjlana was very nice and the trip we took to Lake Bled was wonderful. The car allowed us to travel when and where we wished. Our accommodations were all well located and allowed us to move easily through the various cities we visited. We like all of the cities we visited, including Rovinj and Debrovnik (very crowded) but Split and Hvar were particularly nice.
