Left Zadar and drove an hour and three quarters to Plitvice. Spent about 5 hours wandering the different lakes and waterfalls. Started at the top lakes (via shuttle bus) and then took the boat to the lower lakes and the “big” waterfall. Very spectacular and sooo much quieter than when we came 12 years or so ago. However, waterfalls had less water. Very clear water with many fish and a lovely crisp and sunny autumnal day. Had lunch by the lake and then the bus back to the car. Then a 4 hour drive to a site for the night just inside Slovenia.
