Schengen Clarification - Balkan countries

I think I've got this correct but thought I would check here with the experts! We are travelling to Italy/Slovenia for 55 days then Croatia, Bosnia, Montenegro, Serbia for 25 days then Hungary, Czech, Germany, Swizterland, France for 30 days. If I understand this correctly I should be ok and within the Schengen rules?

Schengen area - 55 days
Non-Schengen* area - 25 days
Schengen area - 30 days
= Schengen area 85 days *Croatia may join the Schengen by our trip in 2020 and I may need to watch these days

Does that line up with the general thoughts of this group?

thanks in advance!

Yes, keep your eye on Croatia. I read they just about fulfilled their requirements for full entry.

And remember that travel days count.
