Istria?
I'm considering flying in and out of Venice this fall for a two week period. Would probably spend a couple of days in Venice front and back and travel for a day or two to Friuli. Istria seems interesting (Lidia Bastianich hails from there). Anyone out there with knowledge of Istria. Thanks.

Istria is a great destination. I took the train to Trieste (I recommend a couple of days in Treiste) and then bus to Rovinj. Rovinj would be my preferred base. From there you can drive or take buses to Pula with it's ancient Roman ruins and Motuvan up on the mountain.
Alternatively you can take a boat from Venice to Rovinj. I recommend staying close to the old town and not in one of the big hotels down the way.
