Plitvice Lakes National Park

The Plitvice Lakes are considered as world heritage by UNESCO. I was amazed with such beauty, although it has not been the best time of year to visit this site.

...but the photos speak for themselves.

Slunjcica Waterfalls

On the way to the Plitvice Lakes we discovered a small town that awakened our interest.
Our curiosity grew when we passed this bridge and we looked over it.
A little paradise...
...with a set of small waterfalls creating a fantastic impression.

Karlovac, The City of War

This was the first place I visited on my trip to Croatia. A small town with little to see. It was the way to the main attraction, the lakes of Plitvice.
The Holy Trinity Church.
This was the city where most keenly noticed the marks of the recent war, through its future war museum (where you can enter)...





...and the visible marks on the walls of some houses.

Another Hilltribe

In northern Thailand you can visit many tribes, most of them came from Burma.
This time what I liked most was the rice fields. Small in size but big in beauty.

Europa Cup 2010

Belgium was the host of the finals of the Europa Cup 2010 (Korfball). Netherlands, Belgium, Germany, Russia, Czech Republic, Portugal, England and Hungary were the countries involved. The order presented corresponds to its position in the event, with the Netherlands in 1st place.
Were six intense days of physical wear and pure emotion.
On the first day of competition we face a frightening scenario through the bedroom window. The fog preceding an environment of war. Once we were allowed to have some free time we visited the town of Herentals. Very small, quiet and with a welcoming atmosphere...
...except the 4ºC.International competitions are always unique and unforgettable ... I'm already waiting for the next opportunity :)
