Friday 9th April

Friday 9th April..........Found layby---cars passing very very fast---slept well----on road for 9am ---9.05 back in Slavenia again, bins and toilets everywhere!!!!---------9.45 Croatia!! It crept up on us, so used to crossing yellow boundary lines on our map------border control and passports---o.k straight through----they are literally building the road we are driving on.....Warm and sunny 17 degrees----have had breakfast---now want shop for fresh bread----do they have LIDL in Croatia?----Pizza restaurant every 200 yards!! Heading for main coast road---stopped to buy bread, they wanted KUNA they got euros! we all shrugged our shoulders--smiled and agreed that 20 Kuna was the correct change?? Rijeka, huge port town, it's getting hot, down to T.shirts---yes LIDL and all the rest---just another city!! the BBC advertising Walking with dinosaurs----signs for euros everywhere must be split currency at the moment.....went to tourist information they sent us to a camp but they are closed until mid-June, but told us of another........so far we have driven 1191miles.
