It took me long enough to post this entry given that we went to Croatia in September. Problem is that Facebook often rather takes the place of the blog these days and sometimes I wonder how to differentiate one from another. Anyway, a friend told me the other day that her blog is her 'happy place' which is a very refreshing and positive way of looking at things. My blog isn't always a happy place. I often ponder here and offload my worries. But it IS a record of Max's life, my life, our life, and my thoughts about what is happening.
This entry is, however, definitely a happy one. In the last two weeks of September, we spent two wonderful weeks on the island of Korcula in southern Croatia (a ferry ride from Split). We travelled, for the first time, with what the Americans call an RV or recreational vehicle i.e. a great big bus thing which was our home for the fortnight. It was a fabulous experience. We all loved sleeping in the RV (Max slept well as he was happy to be close to us and we were happy to be close to him without having his feet in our face). We stayed in a wonderful spacious campsite shaded by pines with lots of space for Max and his bike and within spitting distance of the beach and sea. We were able to cycle almost everywhere or we caught little taxi boats around or off the island which thrilled Max no end. Max also had a growth spurt whilst we were there making restaurant experiences so much more relaxing and enjoyable as he was starving and keen to try lots of new things. All-in-all an experience I would recommend to any small family.
