We still felt pretty exhausted after yesterday so we had a bit of a sleep in and a slow morning. In fact, after a bit of face timing, we actually didn't get out of bed until about 10am! Just what we needed! Kate reckons we need a weekend to have a break from travelling! Eventually we left the house and drove 1 hour to Paklenica National Park. The forecast for today was heavy wind and then later on some rain so weren’t quite sure how the day was going to pan...

Today we drove from Mostar back into Croatia. And we finally got a stamp in our passport for exiting Bosnia – Calvin asked the border control officer and she was very friendly and obliging and gave us the stamp! When we arrived at our accommodation in Lozovac, the owner's mother (we assume) let us in. She didn’t speak English but we got the gist of what she was telling us. Later on, as we were eating our leftover cevaps and borek outside the house in ...

We woke up very early this morning as we had to get the 9:30 ferry from Sućuraj which was on the other side of the island to where we were staying in Hvar.

We ended up arriving in Sućuraj about half an hour early so we decided to look at the town - it was a ghost town!!! So that lasted about 5 mins. The ferry ride from Sućuraj to Drvenik took a...

One full day on Hvar island. It was a cool morning but the forecast said the sun was going to shine later and to celebrate, Calvin wore shorts and thongs today. For a warm up, it was a walk up the hill (involving a lot of steps!) to the Hvar Fortress where we could see over the town of Hvar and out to the Adriatic Sea. A stop by the bakery in town on the way back to the house meant Kate got her morning tea of apple strudel and Calvin got to try burek! Burek is a ...

Today we drove from Rakovica to Split and then we put the car on the ferry at split for the 2 hour ferry trip to Hvar. We had a couple of hours to wander around Split. We wandered along the waterfront and there were lots of people around. Turns out the Split half marathon was there today - we saw the presentation to the first, second and third place getters. As an added bonus there were plenty of portaloos around because of the event and we couldn't seem to find ...
