Armchair Travel: Cruising the Balkan Peninsula from Bottom to Top

October 21, 2019 @ 7:00 pm - 8:00 pm

- Free

Mark Hopkins documents a two-week trip that begins in Athens, Greece, and proceeds by small ship through the Gulf of Corinth and up the spectacular east coast of the Adriatic Sea, with stopovers in Greece, Albania, Montenegro, and Croatia. After 8 days at sea, the tour continues overland to the Croatian capital of Zagreb. A final visit to the Julian Alps of Slovenia completes the adventure. Mark’s photographs will bring you to the famed Acropolis in Athens, the site of the oracle at Delphi, the majestic
mountains of Montenegro, and the historic port cities and islands of Croatia. Along the way they capture Albania’s struggles to right itself after years of stifling repression and they end with some delightful discoveries in Zagreb, capped by scenes of the beautiful valleys of Slovenia. The talk includes discussion of the region’s recent history of political upheaval.
