Sailing Croatia (video)

Time-Lapse-the-World : Croatia from Paul Gavranich on Vimeo.
Volim Croatia! It's impossible to take a bad photo here. Sailing from Split to Dubrovnik we stopped at just a couple of the over 1000 islands on the Dalmatian Adriatic coastline. Highlights included a wine tasting tour in Stari grad, watching the sun go down from a fort in Omis & walking along the wall of the old town in Dubrovnik, arguably the prettiest & most historic town on the Adriatic. Also I'm half Croatian on my dad's side & have family on Korcula which I met for the first time where I ate & ate until I could eat no more, an incredible experience.
