ADVENTURES, CHALLENGES, AND INSIGHTS OF A COUPLE IN EARLY RETIREMENT
This article describes the stops we made each day on our cruise along the Danube. With Viking, there was an included tour each day. Most days we took the included tour but there were days when we decided to go it alone.
Our Croatian cruise ended in the coastal town of Split, so we spent a few days there enjoying the ancient port before moving on. Apparently, all the trains from Split go through Zagreb, so did we.
Taking a cruise through the islands on the Dalmatian Coast of Croatia has long been on our bucket list. Our leisurely week-long island hopping cruise was definitely one of the highlights of our summer.
We had heard such wonderful things about Croatia. Because we had booked a cruise from Dubrovnik to Split back in 2020, we went a few days early to check it out.
Our roving retirement travels in 2021 taught us a few lessons, the most significant is that we need to travel slower in the future. This year we had 59+ travel days. That means that we slept in at least that many beds, and that is definitely too much.
