Dinko and I spent Easter weekend in Pula with our friends. It was a weekend of walking and eating. The food was fantastic and by the end of the weekend, I couldn’t eat anymore. I don’t think I’ve managed to walk off all the food I’ve eaten yet ;)

Pula is a great city. It’s smaller than I thought though, which was nice because we could then walk almost the entire city and see everything while we were there.

We saw a lot of interesting sites.

- Arena (Roman amphitheater from the 1st - 5th centuries)
- Gates (3 remaining roman gates to the center of the city)
- The Forum (main square, currently under construction)
- Temple of Augustus (ancient Roman temple to Augustus)
- Roman Theater Ruins
- Fortress (atop the hill in the center of Pula)
- Fort San Giorgio (from the Austro-Hungarian Empire)

and we spent a few hours in a few other places as well

Rovinj
A beautiful and well-kept costal town. The surroundings and entire coastline are protected.

Hum
Officially the smallest “city” in the world.

Ucka
For the ride back, we decided to save a few bucks by not taking the tunnel and instead driving up Ucka for the fantastic view of the Adriatic coast, Rijeka, Krk, and Cres.

This post was delayed because I wanted to add it when the pictures were available on Dinko.net. Check out all the great pictures.
