I can’t believe we’re already down to our last two weeks in this beautiful country that we’ve been blessed to call home for the past years. We’re trying to make the most of the time with friends and neighbors we love, visiting our favorite spots (we just got back from Pag Island!) and enjoying time as a family doing all the little things that have made Zagreb home. Today that means FIG PICKING!
Beautiful churches, vineyards and orchards around our home on the way to picking figs. It never ceases to amaze me that these are the “normal every day” views here… God is good.

Amanda says
Cam planted a fig cutting last summer and now that one is way bigger and healthier than our actual original tree!!! let’s hope yours takes root – I bet it will! I just know we’re going to hang out and our kids will finally play together and we’ll get to talk in real life – I am so excited!! And thank you – I’m trying not to be anxious about everything we have to get done for our move plus all the things we WANT to do in the short amount of time left.

Admittedly I’m more of a lurker, but whaa? Your time in Croatia is already winding down? I’ve really enjoyed getting to know Croatia through you and I look forward to your next adventure! Send me some figs please! 😉
