Wed 2022/09/07 Scooters to Cres and Krk islands


what Google history thinks we did

Threatening rain, but the showers missed us all day

we were in a rush to catch a particular ferry, so no stops for pictures as we raced south again on Rt 66.

Crepe and ice cream kabobs!








2nd ferry crossing from Cres to Krk


vehicles driving off. We saw a lot of little motor homes. These fit through small tunnels and narrow roads.

We're doing our best!

Renting scooters on Krk is cheap. We need to come back here with a group someday. Let me know if you are interested.




Alphabet sculpture (trail brochure (pdf))

The Glagolitic letter A (A) is the first sculpture in a series of sculptures, which make up the Baška Glagolitic alphabet trail. The Baška tablet also begins with the letter A and the sculpture was erected on the 13th December 2006, on St. Lucy’s Day. It is found here on the Treskavac pass panoramic viewpoint from which there is a beautiful view over the green Baška Valley, which extends all the way down to the sea, the island of Prvić and Mount Velebit.


Bašćanska Staza Glagolice first letter of the Slavic alphabet.

The A sculpture is 6.10 m high, 17 tons in weight and is currently the largest stone monolith in Croatia.
