Day 19 - Opatija

Tuesday 11th July 2017

We have spent enough time on the Croatian Adriatic coast. The Alps are calling. Croatia is a very long country and it is still over 200 miles north to the Slovenian border.

Packing the gear
So we decide to head inland and get onto the E71 motorway. There are some tolls on this route but it is cheap enough and saves us a lot of time. 

 We turn off near Senj and find ourselves on the same road we rode in the other direction when we were first heading for Bosnia. Was it only 8 days ago. It feels like a month.
Fuel stop on the E71
 We crack on up the coast through Rijeka and round the northernmost reach of the Adriatic to Opatija to a camp site we have used before, Camping Opatija.
Perhaps because we have been there before I don't seem to have taken any photographs. 

It's an uneventful stay, just marking time before we get back into the mountains. We find food in a local cafe down by the beach and turn in before it is fully dark.
