Learning To Live With Barking Dogs Mentally



Croatia 2004 - M. Caciolli (Eos 3000N)


Going back to Croatia's focusing this time on the archipelago of Kornati.
After reading the guide of the group of islands of absolute beauty and wild, we decided to test the effect of visiting a place still unspoiled, fascinated by the fact that the archipelago can be known only through a 'boat and a guide.
And once again our expectations were not disappointed, the archipelago of Kornati is nothing but a collection of crystal clear bays that wedging in small mountains in a sea Colorful blue from the bottom.
pass by these green cone in the middle of the blue sea is like visiting another planet, where silence reigns, broken only by the weak tossichhiare of the boat, from the chirping of birds and the slight hiss of the wind darting over the foamy sea forming small ridges.
The vegetation is sparse, but it is almost bare this image to make the islands beautiful and majestic, especially when the boat approaches the steep dark walls that seem to rise from the sea as a warning to navigators.
Dalmatian tells an ancient legend that the Lord created for the latter, as a seal to his work. And he
"With tears, stars and breath of the sea."
"... In order that the vagaries of the wind and the centuries have turned to stone, waves finally subsided, the power of nature that ever stops for a moment, is paralyzed ..."
Here, the Kornati a handful of islands scattered along the coast, different from all other islands, rugged, basic, barren, lonely, arrogant and full of peace.

Here blend grim legends of pirates take fishing tales and stories of miraculous catches of sea bass, red mullet, sardines and sea bream that seems willing to throw themselves in fishing nets.
And while cormorants and pigeons are sleeping in their nests high on rocky cliffs and the wind is light on those magical land, the sun shines with its last rays that calm sea that breaks slowly and rhythmically as if to sing a sweet song ... night.
"Tears of stars and breath of the sea" said a legend ...
