We celebrated our last night in Croatia at this popular pizza joint called Papillon Pizzeria in Lapad neighborhood. We enjoyed walking around and really bonded with kids during the walk. The best part of this vacation, I have to say is the spending quality time with kids and each other. We’ve had so much time, just catching up on every detail of our lives… I’m going to really treasure every moment we had in this beautiful place.
While boys wanted to stay cool in the hotel, Chloe and I walked to Old town in the heat. It was hot but we managed to walk around and had a very nice day just the two of us. She is the best travel buddy!!
Our hotel made an arrangement at Dubrava restaurant to prepare Peka dish for dinner tonight. Peka is a traditional Croatian dish, a roast meal of either meat or seafood with potatoes and assorted vegetables. Chloe and I shared roasted octopus. And boy! it was the best octopus I ever had. It literally melted in my mouth. The side of homemade fresh donuts with whipped butter was a perfect pairing. Oh I’m going to miss the food here when I get back. 🙁
Wife, Mother, jewelry designer & graphic designer /Creative Director, I am HaeWon Cadence Ryu. This is a glimpse into my life’s blessings, passion and inspiration.
This blog came to fruition after I began motherhood; I wanted to be able to capture every millestone of my two beautiful children - Chloe & Shane as they journey through their early years. Since the launch of my online jewelry site, cadencelee.com, I’ve come face-to-face with having to juggle multiple roles. As a result, I have decided to feature some of my designs and inspiration alongside postings of my precious family. For me, this is the perfect medium of work-life balance.
