Hey everybody! On Friday morning, I got a fairly early start in Makarska and set off for the short drive down the coast to the ferry terminal to the island of Hvar. While most people take the ferry to Hvar city directly from Split or Dubrovnik, I took the ferry from the small town of Drvenik to Sucaraj, which is…
Hey everybody – since the last time I wrote a post, I have done the trek from Zadar to Makarska, with stops in Sibenek and Split. Driving from Zadar to Sibenek and Split on Monday and Tuesday was very nice, although it didn’t compare with what I was going to see south of Split today..
Hey everybody, since the last time I did an update I made the 3 1/2 hour trek south from Pula to Zadar along the beautiful Adriatic Highway. This is a twisting two-lane road that hugs the coastline and offers stunning views along the entire route. Here are some photos I got along this portion of the highway.
Hey guys, since I last talked to you I have spent 2 nights in the city of Pula. Pula is the major city in the Istrian Peninsula and was once under the control of the Romans, which there is a lot of evidence of as you walk around the city. Today, it is a very bustling tourist city, with lots…
Yesterday I had a pretty relaxed day just doing some laundry, shopping for supplies, and hanging around the hostel. One of the guys staying there, Luciano from Argentina, had heard my concert the night before and asked me to do some jamming with him and his banjo. So we jammed for about an hour on the porch and had a few people hanging around to listen. Several people told me they had never heard my kind of music live and that they loved it – I think I made a country fan out of Luciano and maybe a couple other people at Vila Veselova!

After Harry’s departure on Thursday morning, Sam and I set off for Croatia. On the way, we wanted to stop by and see Melania Trump’s hometown of Sevnica since it was not…
Hello everybody! Wednesday morning we left the Lake Bohinj Airbnb and took the long ride back to do the Russian Road through the Vrsic Pass. I had already done it while Anna Maria was here, but I really wanted Sam and Harry to get to check out that road and it’s incredible views. I really didn’t mind doing it twice….
Last night we stumbled across a couple of Slovenian guys playing some real traditional American country music, so we decided to check them out. Best decision ever – there was a great crowd there and they were enthusiastic about the music and it was a great atmosphere overall. They were called the “Pointless Rebels”. We stayed for their whole show…
Today the 4 of us took a free walking tour of downtown Ljubliana and learned a lot about the history of the city. Last night and this morning we were pretty much rained out, but this afternoon the sun came back, so we got lucky on the weather. As we speak, we are kicking back by the river drinking the…
It was great to see these guys for the first time in a few years!
