So, we drove quite a ways, deep into the Velebit country and eventually, after asking around, found the little spring. It comes directly off the mountain, but it looked like any other creek, with rocks and moss, broken branches etc. We did fill our water bottles. The little spot was quite enchanting as forests go, with lots of greenery and yes, rocks. It was still cloudy but it didn't rain much so at least we had a little adventure but never got wet. In the end, we were too afraid to drink the water. We thought of boiling it but what's the point in that.

In Search of Spring Water
Someone told us there was a good spring coming off of the mountains that we should check out. It was quite a long ride but very scenic with the Velebit mountains right along the road. It is quite the rugged terrain and remote as well. There were a few things to see like a dam they're using for something, and a very long pipeline. This is part 1 where we just came to the path where we can only go by foot.

Greenery
Just a few things around the house, because the gardens are not very big around the property. There are two fig trees and one olive tree, plus some herbs in pots and ground, but they are not doing very good because they are only dependent on the rain which comes once in a while. I'm not sure if I named all of them correctly but that's it.
Beach Day
It was finally beach day so we could go swimming. It was coming to the end of August but it was still hot and the water was cool. We found a cute spot for out towels on the sand and a ledge for those who wanted to sit. There are a few other towns all around the cove with their own beaches so we can try out a couple of others next time.
