Welcome to the 21st century
Monday morning instead of Sunday night, the new Terminal 3 instead of the old Terminal 2 – what a difference to the previous year!
Finally, the security check is right at the entrance, so that you can buy some drinks to take aboard. Moreover, the shops are not only modern, but also open – even though they resemble the typical airport shops all over the world. Still: That is more like an airport of a cosmopolitan city!

Green Hills and Blue Caves
The last destination of my stay in Croatia was also the least touristy: the island of Vis. This island used to be a military base (up to 1989). Therefore, it is not yet that developed for toursists.
