On the seventh day of the trip we left the city of Split and drove up to Plitvice Lakes National park and toured the park for a couple hours. The park is famous for its many lakes and waterfalls. They have 16 lakes in the park and each is a different level then the one bellow it so the water gets to the next lake by waterfall. The waterfalls in the most case are not huge but maybe on average two meters tall. The tallest one i saw was maybe 30 meters tall and that was going straight down a cliff. The park is a UNESCO world heritage site and was created in 1949. It is home to European brown bears, wolfs, deer and many other small mammals it has many birds and is mostly beach forest. It was by far my favorite place of the trip even better then Dubrovnik. The water in this park is stunning it is blue as all get out and so clear. There are also so many fish in the water because people are not aloud to fish or swim in these lakes.
My yearly trip up to my family's "Hunt Camp" was last weekend. It was a great time seeing the family and seeing the beautiful landscape that it sits on.
