Pyramid of Dalmatia – the mystery continues?
It has been a while since I last reported on the pyramid “mystery”: https://secretdalmatia.wordpress.com/2014/03/11/dalmatian-pyramid/ in the meantime, I was contacted by several very interesting people who were trying to locate it and challenge the location I established.

Winter wanderings – Nunic in Bukovica
