If you visit Croatia, try to see the Plitvice lakes. These are a UNESCO World Heritage Site, a chain of 16 lakes in a wooded mountain valley, linked by thousands of waterfalls. Lime deposits on the bottom give the water an astonishing blue, even on cloudy days.
This is one of the loveliest places in the world. It calms the spirit and refreshes the soul. It is hard to believe that, only a few years ago, war came into this peace. Walking here for many hours, we saw history from a different perspective. Human behaviour seemed like the changing weather, sometimes unwelcome and even damaging, which the trees and hills endure and outlive.
