...exhibit a...


...hmm, i have never been a big fan of the blog world and just didn't think i would ever catch the bug, god knows, i have tried several times and been surrounded by blog post, after blog post appearing in my inbox, but you know what...life is about experiences and giving things a go, so here i will attempt to share my trials and tribulations of the planning and carrying out of a dream holiday, full of adventure...

It all began on a rainy night back in 1962. I cowered in the corner of my room with a blanket over my head.

...too dramatic?? I agree...let me start again at the beginning.

"Wow Mum, isn't it great, Adrian has finally found the one."
"I know, I know a wedding in Croatia - bit far to go really, but it should be lovely for those who can make it, pitty that won't be us!"
"What did you say, Dad said we could go? All of us?? (excitement building) WOOHOO!!!"

I think at that point i danced around the house, rang my husband and stat, raced to my trusty computer to google CROATIA ACCOMMODATION...

Villas for 10 in Croatia - it's a minefield of beauty and picturesque images, with some interesting pronounciation and creative english text thrown in there, so when i am looking for who knows when in who knows where i got a bit carried away and very bloody lost! i really had no idea of any details, so i was very randomly searching for that elusive top spot to stay??

...awaiting the next installment of details was my next mission...i never have been a patient waiter...
