Hotel Arkada Stari Grad

... puste!

A przed nami Zadar, miasto piekne, czyste, zadbane niesamowicie - w kazdym razie STAROWKA. Wyczuwa sie tu wloskie wplywy, ale to nic dziwnego: miasto bylo podlegle Wenecji dlugie lata.
Chociaz z tym numero uno roznie: Krzysia /to ja..to ja / - Zadar. Inni? A to... Kotor, a to.... Dubrownik, a to... laba w Prapratno! Wszystko piekne, po prostu :)

... is nothing else in the entire city to see believe it or not.

Now that we have solved the mysteries of bad 12th Century engineering, it's time to solve the logistical mysteries of 20th Century Pisan public transport. So how is it that in the evening I could buy a ticket either at the transit kiosk in the airport or from the driver directly but this morning I could not buy one on the bus at all. The bus stop I left from had a notice that tickets were ...

so bridget and i check out hvar yesterday...really cute little fishing city..with this huge fortressand all these jail cells..rather interesting...today we went over to this little midieval village called trogir. Really pretty, great seafood! Moved on to zadar today...nice beach town...has this cool sea organ thats built into the water that makes noise from the water and wind...you can swim right around it..unique and you know how i love unique things hehe :)

So we left the lakes about lunchtime to head down here.. hoping the wind wasnt there too.... and it wasnt..hurray! Lay on the beach for a few hours BUT then the wind came... again! Not as bad as baška but still ****...oh dear.... so we didnt stay around too long decided to head down to Primosten and if there was wind there just put up with it...

... Concrêtement, c'est un immense cercle composé de cellules photovoltaïques multicolores qui s'illuminent de façon aléatoire dans un balais de couleur irréaliste. Vraiment magique!

Nous nous mettons ensuite à la recherche d'un bar pour étancher notre soif, jusqu'à ce que la fatigue est raison de nous et nous guide vers notre lit.

... le suivre. Mauvais plan : la maison se trouve beaucoup trop loin du centre, la chambre se compose de 2 lits de camps, pas de portes, une salle de bain douteuse... fuyons! Nous mettons 30 minutes à faire le chemin du retour.

De retour dans le centre, une agence nous indique une adresse vers la marina. Rebelotte, 15 minutes de marche. Nous atterrissons dans un quartier peu reluisant et les informations écrites ...

... en la necesidad de alquilar habitaciones. Pena que esta mujer, Ana, no hablara ni papa de ingles. No habiamos leido mucho de Split asi que no sabiamos que hubo un palacio cuyas ruinas constituyen hoy el centro de la ciudad. En las murallas han "crecido" casas y tiendas y una de ellas era la casa de esta mujer. Asi que era cierto que dormimos en el palacio (aunque no como la suite en Viena ...

... hotel. We are celebrating one birthday tonight, and I include the beverages during our included dinner at the hotel (which turns out to be surprisingly tasty). In retrospect, this has been a spectacular day of touring with a great variety of activities. We are only in this hotel for one night, and it is always good to remind the clients that nobody ever died from staying in a dumpy three star hotel for one night! Big hugs, Dan

... ham, prosciutto, cheese, crustz bread, beer (pivo) and we ate and wate. Ivanka invited us back to her place for dinner that night and she and Marko left and the Mjics cant speak English. So we were able to communicate slowly for about 20 minutes before heading down to our apartment to shower, change and await Marko, our tour guide´s return. Now, we´ve heard a tremendous amount about Croatia and Split in particular, and both had our own expecations. At this point we can truly say that ...

... I dived when I was in Egypt and so knew it would get better, but David had not done it before, and hated it. Underwater we had to take off our masks and take our regulators out of our mouths which neither of us enjoyed. Luckily we came back for the second day and things got better from there. Feeling much better and less scared of drowning, we did our open water dives on the last 2 days. Here ...
