Marseille to Rijeka

DAY 5, LEG 25 - Marseille to Rijeka

On this penultimate leg of Day 5 we head eastbound towards Croatia.  We'll explore Eastern Europe before heading northbound towards Scandinavia.  Our destination Rijeka is located in north-western Croatia and affords us some stunning views of the mountainous coastline.  Rijeka Airport is located on Krk Island, adjacent to the city itself, and can only be reached by a toll road across the bay!
