Opatija/Rovinj

On Monday, April 4, Tim set out on his own to explore Slovenia and Istria.  On Wednesday, I took the bus to Reijka, a bustling seaside city, where he picked me up.  We decided to stay nearby in Opatija.  It is a hillside resort on the Kvarner Gulf filled with large hotels and casinos, but not much else of interest.  So, we had lunch then drove to Rovinj on the other side of the Istrian peninsula.

Rovinj is one of several coastal towns which was once an island and is now connected to the mainland.  Rovinj is made for strolling, stopping and looking.  The sunset was absolutely gorgeous.  Enjoy the slideshow.
