Istanbul

We just spent some time in Croatia on the Dalmation Coast a few days ago - not enough though, of course! I didn't get a chance to do any deep water soloing, but we all went for a dip in the beautiful blue water.

After Croatia, we turned inland to Bosnia, stopping at the amazing city of Mostar. It was bombed in the Bosnian War in 1993 and is now a UNESCO world heritage site. It is the site of the famous Stari Most bridge, which has since been rebuilt. We spent that night in Sarajevo and enjoyed dinner and a stroll through the city center.

The following day we had some problems and miscommunication with the border to Serbia, but made it through in about 4 hours. We spent the night in a small town in Serbia with a friend of Karina's. Today it was smooth sailing to Istanbul, where we are staying tonight.

Lots more photos to post!

The Stari Most bridge in Mostar. Gorgeous place!
