Making me soup and sausage and mash and ...

... in my eye as its bust open and I have cuts and grazes on my face from the rocks and also the biggest black eye you have ever seen its madness. As a precortion they decided to keep me in hospital overnight as I had a head injury and they wanted to make sure that I was ok. So I spent the night in a mad croatian hospital on my own but was brave and kept having nurses putting injections in my **** all evening.

We did not really do much today went back to the room after we had found a laundry for our clothes and then I cooked both me and Beebs a lovely chicken sunday dinner with potaoes and carrots and even found some stuff so that I could make Gravy sorry not much to say but we where so tired and just wanted to chill out.<br>

Rovinj is our first stop with our new guests, my high school friends aboard. Unlike most of our guests when they first come aboard, my friends were very hyper and anxious to get out and have some fun.<br><br>I usually wake up around 8 AM and expected my friends to sleep in much later.

No trains only buses and no real direct lines...well thats kinda all croatia im finding...unfortunately transportation hassles are just part of traveling. At least its worth it when you make it there!<br>

... and I joined Mauro at his favorite restaurant and ordered a typical Croatian lunch. Grilled vegetable, grilled fish, calamari and of course beer. We watched a class of young sailors practicing in the bay right in next to our table.
