After yesterdays realization that we are in "get there mode" today was simply a driving day. Navigation from the campground to the main highway west towards Croatia was pretty easy and then the remainder of the day was on good European highways all the way to the Zagreb ring route.

We stopped in at Zagreb Arena and it's great supermarket for a last stock-up on food and then headed to our familiar motel/campground Motel Plitvice. During our absence they have closed the campground for the winter so we parked in the lot behind the motel and connected to an outside power socket. They said they would give us a key to one of the motel rooms for showers and the hotel reception has a toilet.

We plan to stay at the motel for a couple of days as we now have to budget the time we spend inside the Schengen group of countries before we fly out of Frankfurt on the 22nd.
