Ugh sorry about that..... I should know better...
Funny story quickly. We were exiting Slovenia into Croatia and the border crossing is more of a formality there than anything... Most of the people using the crossing are EU citizens so they dont need an exit stamp.
We werent sure what was going on so we pull up to the first booth and the guard was watching football. I tried to give him our passports but he waived us to the next booth. I figured it was break time. So we went to the next booth the guy took our passports stamped them and said have a good day!
We drove forward to the Croatian Side only to see that it was abandoned... OHHH wait the first guard watching football was the Slovenian guard...
So we parked the car and walked back. I didnt know what to do so I made sure to stay in the open and made eye contact with one of the guards that was just standing beside a booth. As I approached him with my passport in hand another guard started screaming at me.. I explained we didnt get an exit stamp... Ohh just go there. So we went back to the football watching guard. He was a little upset we were interrupting the game for some stupid stamp. He quickly stamped us out of Slovenia and we were finally on our way!
Here is a little video we did on our thoughts on the "freedom" of a campervan"
