Plitvice Lakes National Park

This morning we decided to divide and conquer! While Diana and Christina scoped out more nooks and crannies of the beautiful Zagreb, Kelly and I headed out for a day at the renowned Plitzvice Falls ~


The name is somewhat misleading - Plitzvice is not A waterfall, but rather an area of numerous small falls - quite lovely and luscious!  Off we go ~



 





























The water was so beautifully clear ~



Oops - not all of my selfies work out...  lol

 There!

In some places, the water even rushed over the boardwalk!














First we saw fishies, and then ... ducklings!!!!



Oooo, a cave!!!!


GAH!!!!  A bat!!!!




Luckily, there was so much more lushness to see!














Such a pretty place!  So glad that we decided to explore!


Check out these roots!











We had such fun exploring, despite the crowds of other people there -



And then....
                         Plip. Plop. Plip-plop-plip-plip. Plop-plop-plop-plop-plop!!!!!!



It was a downpour!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  Kelly and I, and everyone else, RAN, hoping to get off the boardwalk and find a bus.  Which we did.  But boy, oh boy, we were soaked to the bone!!!!



 We will never forget this lovely area, though - Totally worth the drenching!
