We unintentionally started our trip in Amsterdam due to a weather issue in Minneapolis messing up our flight itinerary. We spent the day walking around the city, and saw the canals as well as Anne Frank's Secret Annex. We then made it to Split, Croatia where we spent the day on the beach and explored the city. We also took a boat out to Brac Island and enjoyed more beach time. We worked our way north to the Plitvice Lakes National Park. Slovenia was a pleasant surprise with the quaint capital city of Ljubljana and Lake Bled. We enjoyed the day on the lake. We traveled to Budapest via Tihany where we took the ferry across the lake.
