Plitvice Lakes UNESCO

Do not google photos of Plitvice Lakes. Stop! I said don't!

Ugh... ok so now my photos are going to look terrible compared to what you just found on the internet. The lakes were beautiful, but really were not as "paradise like" as they are portrayed in photos and brochures. Don't get me wrong, I loved being there... it was quiet, warm but not too warm, peaceful... and gorgeous. I was just slightly disappointed because I didn't see anything like what I had been led to believe the lakes looked like. Ok, enough complaining.

Check this place out!! Gorgeous... beautiful... majestic... throughout the entire 9 mile hike, I never once lost the sound of water falling somewhere. Everywhere you turn, water is falling. Tiny trickles, gushing flow over some moss covered rocks, falling over a cliff face... This is where those companies record the sounds of water falling to help people sleep. I mean, this is the place.

I've begun keeping count of UNESCO sites that I've visited, as another goal for my life. There are 900+, and I've been to __? At least this is one more off the list!

Photos to be uploaded soon. (They're on Facebook if you're impatient)
