Split photos here:<br> http://www.facebook.com/album.php?aid=1 59738&amp;id=613699523&amp;l=b42d256b69 <br><br><br>Caught bus from Plitvice Jezera to Split and got in about 7pm. Found Situs Hostel no problem (once we actually followed the instructions properly) and it's a really cool, clean, nice small hostel. Peter was really helpful in pointing out things to do and see and eat. Peter's mum was awesome too making us coffee in the ...

... with him quite a bit to get him back to the price we thought we were getting. In the end, it worked out and we had a 3-bedroom apartment with a really beautiful view all to ourselves for 480 Kuna altogether (that&#8217;s only $16 each a night which is really cheap in Europe). We got settled in just in time for sunset, took some pretty pictures from our lanai, and then went to the market down the street for groceries. We cooked a good dinner ...

... an hour as they swam amongst the few boats. The sun has been shining all day and we have done absolutely nothing! After breakfast we walked down to the beach, which is just a short walk from where we have parked at the campsite. Then, we played a board game and had lunch, followed by going for a swim in the ocean and relaxing on the rocks. We are about to catch the ferry from our campsite into the small town of Trogir; we can ...

We awoke to some gray clouds and a bit of humidity. We headed down the street into town and picked up some breakfast. The sky was getting darker and it was starting to look like it was going to rain. We then saw some lightening and soon after the thunder started to roll in. We were getting a bit of wind but still no rain. The island of Hvar looked like it was getting lots of rain. Our luck soon ran out and it began ...

... their football team to win. He gave me a piercing stare. "Yes, It is the same here, he retorted. The "weird thing" about our room in Bol was that it wasn't finished. It was rather loud at night because the glass doors that were supposed to be there weren't. This was our fault since we wanted an upstairs room with a balcony. The tile in the kitchen was only half complete and everywhere on the walls were nests of wires sticking out. Boris would take us on tours of the place ...

... come down with bottles of spiced rum in their hands to join us.. So anyways. .we get to boozing.. boozing good.. then out coem the remnants of our absinthe bottle, these boys have never experienced such euphoria as when putting the bottle of absinthe to your lips.. hahah.. ya its ****, so we finished off the absinthe, take 10 steps towards the gate adn boom, we're at our sick outdoor cocktail bar/night club. Ya they just moves soem seats aroudn and bang, we got a ...

... could enjoy two nice local places like Bol, and eventually Hvar, before going back to split and up to Zagreb. So we bussed over to Bol. We had, once again, no idea where to stay. As you can tell we're not the most organized travellers, but at least we do it in style. So we kind of tried to put on our lost travellers face, but no one was biting. Whats this? Our lost travellers face isn't working? Damn! So I walked over to a map of Bol hoping that there would be ...

... and the first non-HI place on this leg of the trip. And obviously non-HI. The Korcula Backpackers Happy House didn't provide much in the way of facilities - not even sheets, though it was hot enough that you didn't need theem - but what it did provide was plenty of good people and a great atmosphere. It also has to be the biggest party hostel I've been to in a while, and run by a guy that was on the South African Big ...

Greetings from Bol, on the island of Brac in Croatia. After a 3 hour train from Rome to Ancona, the overnight ferry from Ancona to Split, a smaller ferry from Split to Supetar and then the bus from Supetar to Bol, we arrived! Our first shock was the price of accomodation here compared to what we've paid before in Croatia but I guess it's finally realising it ...

... the room. It was so much better than we'd expected, a nice, clean room in an apartment with a lovely balcony with the most amazing view out over Dubrovnik and the ocean. Katha, the woman who owned the place, was very welcoming and cheerful (not the norm in Dubrovnik) although we couldn't speak each other's languages very much, and she brought us wafer biscuits and orange squash. We headed out to look around the old town area of the city, the ...
