Croatia Online - Happy Christmas!

This picture may not look very Christmassy but we took it in Vis town on Vis island, where we spent Christmas 2003. We were the only guests in the only hotel open but had a good time none the less. This year we are off to inland Istria to stay in a Kažun, which is a round stone traditional farmers cottage with an open fire. We'll tell you all about it on our return.

You may have realised, from the reduced frequency of postings over the last couple of months, that things have been pretty hectic for Croatia Online. We're working hard on next year's Time Out Magazine for Visitors to Croatia, which will be on sale in April 2007. There are new restaurants, hotels and activities opening up all the time in Croatia and it takes a lot of research and energy to keep pace with all the news. Time Out has a reputation for being bang up to date, discerning, factually correct, a cracking good read and at the forefront of the latest news and fashions so there's no time to lose!

We'll be updating you on all the latest destination news early in the New Year, as well as looking ahead to the start of the tourist season and reviewing lifestyle issues. So it just remains for us to wish all our readers a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. Or, Sretan Božić i Nova Godina, as the Croatians say.
