Finally , some beautiful coast line with terrific views from our balcony .
We lucked out with a great B&B in a home on the hills in icici croatia . We have A/C , great private bathroom with good water pressure . We have access to a shared kitchen and fridge .
Last night after walking the Promenade and checking out the shops , buying a small painting , and checking out a few restaurants , we opted for going to shop at the market for some local bread (it was still warm) and some fresh ripe tomatoes , some meat and cheese and some yogurt for desert,and a bottle of local wine .... All for about $178.00 Croatian Kuna (about $34 canadian) . We went back to our room and sat out on the terrace and ate and drank while watching the Adriatic Sea .... Mmmm.
On a side note , when we arrived in Croatia , it was the first border crossing of any kind that we have encountered in our trip . There were two guards standing side by side checking the cars . The first gaurd was Slovenian, he stamped our passports and passed them to the Croatian gaurd , who also stamped them .... This was cool !!!
Today we got up and had a Croatian continental breakfast that was great ... Some strong coffee and orange juice with some bread and meats and cheeses , with a bowl of fruit to pick from ...mmmm.
Then we got our beach towels and got some much needed sun tanning in ... We have been slacking on that due to some cloudy days in Italy .We also did some laundry and hung it on the balcony , where it was dry in less that three hours .
Then we went to the market again for some more food and wine for another night of hotel room dining , and we also had to stop and get a little ice cream ...for the walk back up the hill .
Tomorrow we leave for Austria , and Saturday morning we will return the rental car and fly to Athens . Mmmmm Greece ... We are so anxious to get there .... It's like our second home ...
