We wanted to come and experience Croatia but we didn’t expect to come and fall in love with your beautiful country!! 🙂 But most of all all, you all gave us such a good impression and example of how friendly, hand working, and fun Croatians can be… at least of all of you on the boat (and in the family restaurant). All of your own love of your country, and pride in all that it represents, made it easy to enter into that same love and appreciation far all that you shared with us on this amazing voyage and trip! Luka, your humble, tireless service to all of us was such an inspiration and joy to all of us! Each one of you seemed to work together so well and made for an awesome team! I think we had the BEST captain in all of the Adriatic sea… Thank you for all your care in planning our daily route and for giving us the best possible experience, each and every day (and night)… and than for your effort in communicating the plans and possibilities at all times! This amazing trip will be something we will remember with pleasure the rest of our lives! Thank you with all of our hearts! B+B
