Island of HVAR

[komotar]

For those who know, I wen't on a roadtrip to do a story, a test for the mag I write for.

We tested two motorcycles and one car. Mazda RX8, Harley Davidson and a Ducati...

pics of the drive and the island of Hvar...

this is the forst time you see the adriatic sea. It's amazing because you cross a mountain chain trough a tunel and on this side the sun was shining, on the other side, it was cloudy and 7 deg C colder

I remember when I went to Craotia, the water in the sea was SO crystal clear it's unbeliavable. At 15 metrtes of depth I could still see the sea bed without a blur.

That place is stunning. Very very nice, and the pics to match it, as always. 8)
