I had a great time shooting these pictures with the sea lapping behind me and only two old ladies as an audience. Uhm, one of them topless.
As you often find with old-fashioned resorts, they are often stuck in time, and usually some parts of them are stuck in a nostalgic haze of the 19th century, while another is stuck in the 1970s or something. Well, that's where topless old ladies spring forth from. :)
The sea is eternal though, it was there to enjoy for Franz Josef, the emperor of Austro-Hungary, and his wife, the legendary Sissy, it was there when the topless old lady was a topless young chick and sipped retro Yugoslav drinks beside it. I hope it will be there for a long time for all of us to enjoy. :)

Hi!! Madeline, you look so so pretty in these pics!! I can tell you enjoyed taking the pics! Funny story about the topless lady, they're allowed to go topless??
Oooh and I'm waiting for a post with your cheesecake recipe! I would love to try it (actually I would tell my sister to do it, she's the baker). :)
Those stone pathways are so beautiful--so much character, since the weren't cut into pristine geometric shapes. We had a wall like that at my childhood home. It's sort of sad the things I end up noticing sometimes.
Have I ever told you your red red hair is gorgeous?
Hi Pau, I will type up the recipe for you! Or for your sister. :)
Yes, toplessness is not a problem around the Adriatic, there are nudist beaches as well, but (luckily) not close to Opatija. :P
Lea, I'm glad you're noticing the small things in the pictures!
And thank you for the compliment! :)

Thank you so much, LV! :)
Lovely dress and that place looks beautiful in the second photo! I love the pendant too, finding stones and shells with holes in for turning in to jewellery is the best :D
xxxxx
Argh, I loved it! It's still chilly and rainy here, the color of the sea makes me want to whine all day about the weather. Long dresses are amazing but never been able to rock one like that. Maybe this spring/summer? If only I had an Elie Saab dress lol.
Lovely snapshots!
Caroline, you can't guess how much time I can spend looking for stones by any sort of water. :P Once I brought home 2 kilos of stones from Ireland. Yes, I'm obsessed! :)
Dizzy Tea, I can only recommend this dress, if you want to give maxis a try. Very cheap and very comfortable. Like a long t-shirt, really. :)
That's a beautiful dress, and I love your description of a place stuck in the past - so true!
Thanks, Poet, I'm sure you too know many places like this in Central Europe. One of the reasons I like living here, really!
these photos are so pretty, what an amazing location!
Chic on the Cheap
Thanks Lyddie, yeah, the Kvarner Riviera is a magical place...
Looks like you had a great time!
