Plitvice Lakes, Croatia


Overview looking down over some of the lakes. It's a huge valley of travatine rock formation where over time this long series of flat tray-like lakes spill down into each other. The walk down from top to bottom is about 10 km. 



Hundreds of small waterfalls like this and some much bigger

Exceptionally clear water


Trying our best to look Serbian


Nell thought this stick and it's reflection looked like a heart. I thought it resembled a puffer fish.

The water was iridescent blue green or turquoise.



We took the electric ferry down the biggest lake and had a delicious lunch, guys were BBQ ing half chickens on big poles over fires.


Some of the larger falls.



Luckily we got here really early as by lunch time the crowds were amazing. 


Very hot day but sadly no swimming allowed to preserve water quality. Did we miss that sign?
