Water Melons

I've been enthusing about the variety of fruit trees we have witnessed in Croatia, but it is not just the trees that are amazing; the fruit itself can be quite astonishing too.

We must be in high water melon season because everywhere we look there are these monster melons stacked mile high, waiting to be carted off.

They are so big that it takes a team of grown men to physically carry them as if they were tablets of rock set for Stonehenge and in comparison they make what passes for a similar item in the UK look about the size of a marble.

I think I've eaten more fruit in the last few weeks than in years back in Blighty and that really can't be a bad thing.
