It is the time of the year for getting out to the fields. In Vrgorac, the grape harvest has begun and soon first bikla will be mixed to provide power and health for the long winter. Here are some pictures from the Zavičajna Udruga Zavojane (FB page) with a statement: "This year´s grapes are of an excellent quality, with an ideal sugar and acid ratio. The weather is very nice and it makes the harvest a very pleasant outdoor activity in the nature."

What a beautiful way of spending a day..
