Last Explorations with Car

Thursday traveled down to the southern most point of the Istrian peninsula, a wind swept national park. There were several people there collecting herbs and wild aspargus.

Yes, I am still wearing a North Face fleece


According to Lonely Planet : " Kolombarica Beach, on the southern end of the peninsula, is popular with daring young men who dive from high cliffs and swim through the shallow caves at the water's edge." Daring young women are probably just smarter!!

Today, I traveled the coastal route to return the car in Rijeka. Stopped in the old town of Labin and here are some photos :


And some shots of Rijeka :


Clock Tower and old Roman gate


View from Trst castle and view up to castle above city

And now it is back to bicycle and buses!
