Holiday in Porec

In 1998 we had a holiday in Porec with my husband's sister Anne and her husband Colin. We stayed at the Hotel Matarada just outside of the centre of Porec.

Porec Town

Street in Porec

This is a typical street in the old part of Porec town. I fell in love with Porec town as soon as I set foot in it. It really is one of the prettiest romantic towns I have ever visited.
