Punta Vodice

... hotel, whereby you additionally get a memorable view of the Adriatic, which is different by the day. Adventurers and athletes with restless spirits, romantics and dreamers, hedonists and those who are always young in their spirit – will find their dream come true on the Aurum boat..

... it wasn't luxury, it was decent and we really enjoyed it. There was a couple from Switzerland who were in Croatia for windsurfing and we talked to them for a little while the following morning before we headed out.



Today has to have been the most relaxing day of the trip! We woke this morning and while we were having our breakfast, Matt spotted three dolphins swimming out in the water below us! We watched them for ...

Po podrozy przez pustkowia, z widokami ostrzelanych, opuszczonych domostw - dojechalismy na wybrzeze.
Jakaz zmiana! Widac, ze po tej stronie gor kwitnie turystyka.
Mieszkamy pieknie - apartament tuz za mostem staromiejskim, w 3 - 4 rzedzie domow na wzgorzu - z widokiem na Stare Miasto. I to jaki apartament!
Po przebrzmieniu okrzykow entuzjazmu - schodzimy przez ogrod na wyspe, na ktorej rozlozylo sie Stare Miasto ...

... 25km sur 3km. Aucune plage à l'horizon, que des falaises tombant à pic!

Notre bâteau navigue le long de ce parc magnifique bordé par une eau cristaline. Après 3h de trajet, nous débarquons dans une baie à l'extrémité de l'île de Dugi Otok, dans le parc naturel de Telascica.

Day 7 - Opat to Pizchera - Today we go visit the cliffs on the west side of the Kornatis. RASIP V, MANA, incredible cliffs, very deep all the way to the cliff walls.

... sunglasses off a peer into the sea on the way and we passed a fair bit of Torcida graffiti before finding a place which sold cocktails. For those of you who don't know, Torcida (of Hajduk Split) is the oldest football firm in the world; football hooliganism has now been alive in Split for 57 years, (thank you Danny Dyer). After several Long Island Iced Teas, which contain 5 whole shots of alcohol in this part of the world, we decided to stumble home and rest up for the next day.

... in doubt though and after about 20 minutes the last of the ultras were running out the exits ahead of the cops who seemed content to let them go. It was then I took off, before they turned their attention to the spectators in the next section. As I left though the Dinamo fans (who weren't allowed to leave for a couple hours for their own safety, an apparently common practice) were still happily burning their section of the stands as riot cops looked on ...

... able to avoid the obscenely-priced restaurants because Jamie found the fish market. She made dinners which we enjoyed on our apartment's roof top terrace. The best thing about being here in the low season, aside from no crowds, is we were able to find a great price for an apartment right over the yachts.

... indeed! In fact, our plans to stay for just a day or possible overnight quickly became plans to stay 2,3, or 4 days. Three days it turns out as we plan to head out early tomorrow morning back for the mainland. Staying here longer meant cutting other possible ...
