Croatia / Slovenia: Cycling to Cape Kamenjak, Diving in Fiesa, GeoCaching, Movie Evening

In the morning Nada and me did a bicycle tour from Premantura to Cape Kamenjak. First we went through the dinosaur trail, where we saw many dinosaurs and in the end their footprints.

We continued all the way to the southern point of Istria and then we returned for lunch to the campsite. Borut prepared Gilt-head bream/Orada on a barbecue and it was delicious.

After the lunch we started riding back to Ljubljana.

Quick stop by the Lim Channel. The estuary is sometimes called a fjord, although it is not in fact a fjord but a ria, because it was not carved by a glacier but by the river eroding the ground on its way to the Adriatic Sea, when the sea level was lower.

Soon we returned back to Slovenia, Nada instructed me to drive to Fiesa, where my birthday surprise was still waiting for me. I didn't know till the end what I will have to do. We went scuba diving. Great surprise!

We survived and it was great!

Well done.
