We'll be starting the trip in Croatia before moving along the coast - Bosnia and Montenegro. Then inland, to Kosovo, Macedonia, Serbia, and Romania. Then back up to Hungary and ending the trip with Slovakia. It'll be a month of good food, great memories, and even better company (my lovely husband and I).

We'll be flying into Croatia, and after what will be a roughly 20 hour travel day, we can't wait to begin our trip.

Knowing us, as lovers of the arts, it shouldn't come as a surprise that the Hungarian Opera House has been a dream destination.

We'll be visiting places such as Peles Castle, Bran Castle, and Pelisor Castle.

David's favorite thing (after me).

Istria is known for both white and black truffles. As foodies, we'll have to try them out.

An amusement park in a salt mine in Romania!

This monastery may, or may not (likely not), have the remains of Vlad the Impaler.

We gotta

Count Orlok's Castle. Time to relive Nosferatu.
