Moving South - Day 8

Moving South - Day 8
A long bus ride coming off the Itrian peninsula, coming down the mainland coast. Long, as in 3 hours. Yes, Paul, that is nothing to you.
We came to the Plitvice Lakes National Park. This is a series of lakes and waterfalls which we hiked and hiked and hiked. The course was about 4 miles along the rivers and waterfalls. We were walking on a wooden path next to, across, and over the falls. I was reminded of Myst. It was actually pretty spectacular, but there were no guide rails or protection, and I was concerned about falling from the narrow path, especially when a bunch of teenagers were coming the opposite direction. Luckily, there were no mishaps. But, as we were about to complete our trek back to our starting point, the path was flooded from all the recent rains, and we had to retrace our steps. Once we got back, we were on a boat to another falls, but there was more hiking up about 100 meters up the hill. No chest pain, but I was huffing pretty hard. Ann had no problems, though, even with her hips or back. My back was talking to me, but I tried not to listen.
And that was the day. Another 3 hours on the bus to Trogir which isn't too far from Split, where we spend tomorrow.
