Ovo je bio sjajan dan."En: "I'm glad you handled it well. This was a great day."Hr: Luka se nasmijao, shvaćajući da je naučio nešto važno.En: Luka laughed, realizing he had learned something important.Hr: Prihvatio je nepredvidivost.En: He embraced unpredictability.Hr: Kiša mu nije uspjela uništiti dan. Naprotiv, donijela je neočekivanu avanturu.En: The rain had not ruined his day; rather, it had brought an unexpected adventure.Hr: Ponekad najbolji trenuci dolaze kad ih najmanje očekuješ.En: Sometimes the best moments come when you least expect them.Hr: Tog su dana Luka i Mia stvorili uspomene koje će još dugo pričati.En: That day, Luka and Mia created memories they would talk about for a long time.Hr: Povijest je oživjela kroz njihove oči, a Split im je pružio tajnu koju su otkrili zajedno.En: History came to life through their eyes, and Split offered them a secret they had uncovered together.
