Jun 6, 2008 - On to Rijeka

Yesterday afternoon, we boarded a slow ferry up the Dalmatian coast. This morning, it is raining in Rijeka. ... Rijeka is a bit more industrial than some of the other places we have seen. ... A port city with enough character to keep us happy simply because it is in Croatia and not Alabama.Yesterday afternoon, we boarded a slow ferry up the Dalmatian coast.

May 7, 2007 - Crikvenica, Croatia

Coming to Croatia was like visiting an old friend. We were both surprised at how familiar it felt, even Rijeka, a city we've never been to. ... No doubt part of it comes from the fact that we had gone to Italy without a guidebook and were always just a little behind on figuring things out, whereas not only did we have a guidebook for Croatia, but we've been there before.Coming to Croatia was like visiting an old friend.

Aug 3, 2004 - Rijeka, Croatia

So when the bus came we asked the driver's recommendation how to get to the bigger city in the right direction, Rijeka. ... We are answering, „No, not Pula, we want to go to Rijeka ". ... Then a lady who spoke English translated that we should get off the bus shortly on the other side of the border at Buje and get on a bus there a few hours later for Rijeka. ... Later on the way to Rijeka we saw a lot more of this set up, a village on the top a steep hill, but all we could think by then, „Buye, Buye!!!" (Charlie is being nice by not mentioning a little mistake I made when boarding the bus from Buye to Rijeka. ... ) Rijeka The ride through Rijeka was not very nice. ...
