Day 5: Exploring Istria
Today we traversed the Istrian peninsula learning about the Roman and Venetian influences in northern Croatia.

Today's Highlights
Pula and Rovinj were two of the towns I wanted to visit the most on this tour so the whole day was a highlight for me!

Activity Tracking
Peak activity for the day came exploring Rovinj on our own. I certainly think that the Fitbit might have missed a flight of stairs or two during the tower climb because I was moving so slowly! (see comments on death grip on railings and walls from earlier) At least we've got the hike up to our hotel at the end of the night to pick up a few extra flights of stairs!
Totals for the day: 17,728 steps, 42 flights of stairs
- A: Strolling the castle walls around Montovun
- B: Tour of the amphitheater and Pula
- C: Exploring Pula on our own
- D: Exploring the winding streets of Rovinj
- E: Bell tower climb (The number of steps captured at this time does not adequately capture how my level of fear slowed me down)
- F: Walking up the hill to our Montovun hotel
Totals for the day: 17,728 steps, 42 flights of stairs
It's time to leave Istria and head inland to the parks.....
