Apologies for the lack of ramblings here lately but we've been rather busy being totally enthralled by another of Croatia's beautiful National Parks PLUS, summer has finally arrived and we've spent most of our time out of doors, soaking up the sun's rays! Anyhow, where were we? Oh yeah, we were in Zadar when we … Continue reading Natural Wonders At Krka National Park
Pag, Nin, Zadar……Sounds Like We’re In Flash Gordon’s Universe!
Our few days in Camping Village Simuni were spent doing very little, to be honest. We made the most of the sunshine and lolled in our comfy outdoor chairs, taking short strolls along the beaches and watching the amazing sunsets. So warm was it on Monday that we celebrated Harley's 2nd Birthday by joining him … Continue reading Pag, Nin, Zadar……Sounds Like We’re In Flash Gordon’s Universe!

Making The Most Of Croatian Walking Trails In North Dalmatia
A quick pre-dinner stroll along the promenade from our sleepy spot to Selce town, revealed a small but pretty tourist town, currently undergoing major refurbishment work , it will be even prettier once the work is finished. Previously an Adriatic fishing village, the good folk of Selce have taken to tourism like a duck to … Continue reading Making The Most Of Croatian Walking Trails In North Dalmatia

A Wet And Windy Start To Our Croatian Discovery! Thankfully, It Improved!
Tuesday's forecast for Pula was, quite frankly, dire! Shower at noon, followed by more at 3pm, with increasing northerly winds. Nonetheless, we Die-hards waited until the noon shower had passed before donning our boots and waterproofs and walking the 3km into Pula town centre. Needless to say, the forecast was wrong and, before we reached … Continue reading A Wet And Windy Start To Our Croatian Discovery! Thankfully, It Improved!

Croatian Culture Vultures Take A Sabbatical!
On arriving at our campsite on Thursday, we pitched camp on a picturesque, sun-drenched, large pitch, and flopped into our chairs. Driving in Italy had been, as we may have mentioned previously(!!!), a pretty stressful business and it took a degree of adjustment once we got into Croatia - gone were the madcap suicide jockeys … Continue reading Croatian Culture Vultures Take A Sabbatical!

Three Countries In One Day
Our Trieste sleepy spot was, thankfully, somewhat more peaceful than we expected, considering it's proximity to the city centre AND the busy port. We'd stuck €1.20 into the meter before going to bed which gave us until 9.30am to either ship out or feed the meter again. We opted to ship out as soon as … Continue reading Three Countries In One Day

A Long (And Tolled!) Trek To Trieste!
Tuesday morning dawned and Team Sebo were ready to hit the Autostrada for Trieste. Yes, I know, Team Sebo normally avoid toll roads like the plague BUT, since Trieste was gonna be a longhaul (by our standards anyhow!), we bit the bullet, paid the tolls (€21.90 in total!) and managed to cover the 276km distance … Continue reading A Long (And Tolled!) Trek To Trieste!

Two Very Different Weeks for Team Sebo
As myself and Harley bid a sad "Arriverderci" to Roy on Saturday morning, thoughts turned to how we would occupy ourselves for the duration. The campsite was fairly quiet, with lots of free pitches when we arrived - my, how they quickly filled-up over the weekend! Of course, Easter was approaching and, as far as … Continue reading Two Very Different Weeks for Team Sebo

A Week Of Ups And Downs In Northern Italy
As we left dreary Ovada on Sunday morning, the skies began to clear and we travelled north, into the foothills of the Italian/Swiss Alps. Semi-decent road surfaces and a distinct lack of traffic gave us a trouble free trek to Mongrando in Biella Province. A cute wee town with a forward-thinking Commune who have seen fit … Continue reading A Week Of Ups And Downs In Northern Italy

Italy – Both Stunningly Beautiful AND Petrifying, All At The Same Time!
On leaving our freebie parking spot in Ventimiglia, last week, we were thrown straight back into the madness that is Italian traffic! I say, once again, they are completely mad! We pootled along the coast, desperately trying to avoid the suicide jockeys, both on two wheels and four, as far as Imperia, before we managed … Continue reading Italy – Both Stunningly Beautiful AND Petrifying, All At The Same Time!
