OpatijaDriveBy


You will have to take my word that Opatija is a charming town on the sea. I arrived late at night and the bus pulled out early the next morning for the next stop on the tour. The town is named after the abbey upon which the town was founded. Before World War I, royalty (Hapsburgs, tsars, etc) and celebrities of the day traveled to this town to "take the waters" for their health.It remains a charming town, even though you are seeing only the coffee shop in my hotel in the photo.
