Vacation Time……Almost! Part 4

Last one I promise!! :)

These are some images from other parts of Croatia we’ve visited. Most people don’t realize that Croatia has nearly 1200 islands off their coast in the Adriatic. Very few of them are yet inhabited.

This first image is from one of my favorite islands we visited, Brač. The beach is in the small town of Bol. This beach comes to a point, and the point will actually shift directions based on the currents and time of year. The beach itself is made up of tiny, smooth pebbles rather than sand, and is very popular. This image was taken very early in the morning, or you wouldn’t have been able to see the beach that time of year. :)

The next 2 images are from Makarska, Croatia. Makarska is a coastal town on the mainland of Croatia. It is tucked right between Biokovo Mountain, and the coast.

Finally these images are from Split, Croatia. Split is actually a large port town, with 200,000 plus people. It has a walled historical area called the Diocletian’s Palace, parts of which date back to the 12th century.

Well that’s all from me for a couple of weeks, I hope you enjoyed the photos from some of our previous travels, and that you won’t be tired of them since I’ll likely have more upon our return!

See you soon!

Vacation Time……Almost! Part 3

OK we’re carrying on with the theme of us getting into vacation mode by sharing some of my favorite photos from the locations we’re going to visit. After Paris we’re heading to………

Dubrovnik, Croatia! Malarie’s Dad is Croatian, and has retired there. We try to have a visit at least once a year, so I’ve had the opportunity to visit this beautiful country several times. It really is a gorgeous place, and it seems to get busier with tourists every time we go. I’ll post some of my favorites from the Dubrovnik area today, with some other Croatian images tomorrow. Thanks for viewing!

Vacation Time……Almost! Part 2

Alright! Yesterday I promised I would post some of my fav color photos from Paris today so here we go! :

I have a soft spot for this photo since we lived about 50 yards to the right of this church/square:

Thanks for looking! Tomorrow, I’ll be posting about our second location!

Vacation Time……Almost! Part 1

I mentioned that we were busy getting things complete for our clients so we can enjoy our upcoming vacation. I was however, being sneaky about where we were headed. Sneaky, only because we’re headed to two locations that are already close to our hearts, and I wanted to share some photos of our previous trips!

I’ll let location #1 out of the bag now, and I will share some of my favorite black and white photos from our time there:

Paris! We were lucky enough to have the opportunity to live in Paris for a little over a year, and it’s been a year and a few months since our return to SF. This will be our first trip back, and we’re really looking forward to spending some more time in one of our favorite places, and eating some of our favorite things! Yum. :-)

I’ll share some of my favorite color images of Paris tomorrow!
