25/08/2011 Day 16. Split Day 2

Woke up this morning at half 9 with a huge sweat on! It's wa boiling already. The lads had arrived back while I was asleep but I had a text from Dave saying he was lost but he found his way back. I got out of the van just so I could cool down and everyone else followed shortly. We headed to the beach! A dip in the sea would surely (I was going to write shorely, rubbish joke) sort us out. I entered the water with a cheeky back flip off the lower board, classy. Dave come down the beach with Sam's camera and was taking pictures of me and Sam playing on the diving boards. I managed to build up the courage to do the front flip from the top board. I jogged off the end and threw myself over, I managed to nail it and didn't die once! We got some dinner and thought about heading into Split for some touristy action. While eating the australians over the way from us on the campsite were here so we had a chat with them, they were out last night too. They told us how they had been living in London as teachers for 18 months and when they're visa finished they started travelling. We're so jealous, I want to do that after finishing my PhD. We headed for the bus stop minus Nick, he was too hungover. Waiting for the bid was agony, it was so warm I was sweating through my top. The bus came and that was worse, we were all freaking out thinking we were about to die. As we got into town we ran to a shop for water. We walked some streets trying to remember where we were last night. But we headed then down some allies which had stalls and things in. We went around the palace hounds and to the harbour, there were a few cruise liners hanging around. It was too hot though, we couldn't cope with doing the tourist stuff too much, painfully hot. We got a few pictures and headed back around half 4. When we got back me, Nick and Dave headed to the restaurant for some grub. Me and Dave had a lasagne which was amazing and nick had a stuffed chicken breast that he didn't enjoy too much. We headed to the beach again to make the most of it while the sun was still up. Me n nick went in. He talked me into doing what I was threatening all day, a backflip off the high board, nailed it again but I was soooo scared! We stayed by the beach and watched the sun set and had a giggle while Dave slept in the van. When we returned Sam played some of the Ricky get aid show podcasts, hilarious!! We're all tucked up in bed now at 10pm because of the epic 9 hour drive planned for tomorrow. Off to Slovenia at 7am. Croatia has been brilliant.
