1/10/11 Opatija and Zagreb

Restaurant at the Lungomare - with fishing nets for atmosphere

In the morning, we walked along the Lungomare (seaside promenade) for over an hour, getting a closeup of some of the fabulous villas built in the 1800’s and since mostly abandoned. In the last few years, they have become hotels or are being re-invented by owners and Opatija is getting a name as a jet-set city. We had some drizzly rain, but nothing too bad.

We left for Zagreb at 11:30, and made one stop for a quick lunch along the way – my lunch was another Magnum Bar. YUM! We got to the hotel by 2:30 and then spent a couple hours wandering around and found a light dinner. It was LOTS warmer than the last time, so lots more enjoyable.
