After a recent 2 week trip to Croatia I'm not sure that letting them in is a good thing. Yes the country is nice but it is still very backward. Once you get out of the bigger towns then there is nothing. I camped at a small town called Stari Stelo. About 1km North of the Bosnian border about 10km North of Bihac. There was a brick building about 10' X 10' and that was the shop for the village. Nothing else. The next village was 8mile away which had a big hotel and some shops. But still nothing major.
When you head to the coast it then becomes more commercial and they are really geared up for the tourist trade. Prices aren't that much cheaper than the rest of Europe. A camping pitch was already 20eu.
They are already running a dual currency economy. Everywhere wants to take Euros but give a real bad exchange rate.

Although this is only a snapshot of the whole country I feel that in time Croatia will become a burden on other EU member states and could cost s millions in the future.
Does anyone else have any thoughts on this?
