Hotel Art Split

... pizzerii i potem... zwiedzamy " kocia republike".
Zabytkow mnostwo - jak zawsze ciesza oko.
Natomiast ilosc kotow na uliczkach, skwerach, placach - przekroczyla nasza wyobraznie.
Ogladamy tez dom zakupiony prze Billa Gatesa - niestety nie mozna tam wejsc. Ale to, co widac z zewnatrz, swiadczy o duzych pieniadzach i dobrym smaku!
Wieczorem, juz po zmroku pokonujemy / adrenalinka..adrenalinka!/ serpentyny w drodze do domu w Prapratnie.

... luxury Gulet charter sailing on our Aurum yacht, we can make your dreams came true!

Visit Croatia, a European country surrounded by hundreds of islands of the Adriatic sea – an ideal destination for yachtsmen. You can expect to find the Mediterranean as it once was: untouched ...

... for lunch - and given the fact that my story had spread around the boat over breakfast, but the time it came for lunch to be served, not many people were willing to take on the chicken... (even though the food I ate the night before was in a restaurant and our chef had prepared - during the course of the entire trip) three ...

... Sail Croatia tour tomorrow morning and I'm a little apprehensive, I walked passed by boat (The Endevour) today and it's huge and not as traditional-looking as the other boats...) I suppose all will be revealed in the morn...


I checked-in at the dock to find out that I'd been upgraded (for free!) to the premier class - which explains why my boat is less traditional looking and why it's so much bigger ...

We hopped on a
ferry to the nearest island from Split, Brac. Not wanting to wait for the 4pm
ferry that went direct to the town of Bol where we were to meet friends, we
took one of the more frequent ones to Supetar which was right opposite Split,
and then a minivan guy found us, filled the car up with other travellers and we
were off to Bol.We were to meet my old boss Greg, and his wife Rimma. We had stayed with Greg at his apartmentin Moscow ...

... to literally be sipping coffee (or beer) in the shadow of the tower and pillars. I had left that experience for my day time excursion into the old town. Moving on from the ruins, the remaining old town is perhaps the most complicated network of alleys and streets I have ever come across. There are just so many streets and cobbled roads going into every conceivable direction, that within 5 minutes I had lost all orientation as to even what general direction I was ...

... in history. I can understand why the old town of Split was inscribed as a World Heritage site. The Basement Halls of the palace are simple yet tell a the story of the ancient times in Split. As in many old towns I have visited on this trip, the streets are very narrow, winding in and out. I love this, every house, palace has a charm uniquely its own. Although my fear of heights is still there, I could not resist climbing the Bell Tower for a birdīs eye ...

Croatia! Yay! Today we are in Split. It is my first time in this country after hearing such great things about it from my friend Tamara. Split did not disappoint. The city is absolutely splendid. The coast line is astonishingly beautiful. The water is a gorgeous blue-green, and there are nice brown mountains in the background. The orange tiled roofs make for a nice contrast. We started our day by walking into the walled city. We ...

... showing a bunch of men kicking a ball around a soccer field. It is fun to get into it a bit, though, especially considering how big an event it is everywhere in the world, whereas in Canada everything is all hockey, all the time, and soccer is pretty low on our national priority list. (On the subject of hockey, I'm glad to see Edmonton is still alive after Wednesday's overtime win). That's pretty much it for now ...
