Location
The picture was taken in rovigno d’istria now Iin Croatia . For my 70th birthday I wanted to go back in time. A trip back to where my family was from while it was under Italian rule. I decided to bring my three sons back to our roots. You see my parents fled with my two brothers in 1942 during the Second World War ... it was the best trip of my life. See the beauty my parents were forced to leave behind due to ethnic cleansing during those horrific times. Then those lands went to communist Yugoslavia and Now to Croatia .Time
