More Croatian Scenes

A few more Croatian scenes...
Driving along in the northern mountains, one sees several underpasses like this

Which turn out to be animal overpasses: bears and wolves returning to the area;
we've seen a few of these in Montana and other such places

Easter eve we stayed at Kamp Zelina Dolena, as we did back in July; it's really
more an agricultural sosta, an orchard run by a farmer and his wife; he seemed
to remember us, especially after I recalled his fondness for the Golden State
Warriors, and he again brought us a couple glasses of his home-made high-test
plum liqueur; next morning, as we were departing, he brought out a couple Easter
eggs his wife had painted; a Slavic Easter custom, Vicki said

After doing Plitvice, we spent the night at the Plitvice Holiday Resort; pictured
above is its Indian village and playground

It's still under construction and expansion and typical of the development going
on all around Plitvice; we passed several such that simply weren't there last July

In addition to budget, regular, and luxury RV sites, Plitvice Holiday Resort has
tree-house cabins

Lakeside cabins (actually a sink hole)

Golfing and other recreation area (not to mention restaurant, lounge, general store)

More wilderness and Indian paraphrenalia, yet to be installed

And still more tree-house cabins; Plitvice has been discovered and soon, we
predict, will be going to a reservation system, like some popular US national
parks; you heard it first here...
