Day 16: 10am departure today as we have a new Topdeck driver replacing us today (Davo needed to leave the tour to go back to Spain to visit his sick mum). Dan was the new driver -- looked pretty young, in his early 30s and Irish. He seemed pretty good as he was looking at maps before and during the trip and got along with Luke well.
A full day drive to Croatia today... Expected arrival at 5pm. After crossing the Croatian border, we travelled on winding roads with the cliffside on one side and the crystal blue sea and islands on the right. Absolutely spectacular!! Croatia is made up of > 1,000 islands, and today we're making our way to Pag.
Dan got our ETA at the ferry port absolutely spot on - we arrived 5 mins before 5pm! After a 20 minutes ferry ride to Pag, we get to our "Hotel Loza" for check-in at 6pm. The hotel was right on the water facing the marina and pretty decent!
After a buffet dinner at the hotel, we walked along the waterfront corso lined with stalls selling souvenirs, trinkets, local food delicacies...after trying some Ozujsko (Lemon flavoured) local beer and hearing some local middle-aged men singing heartily to an accordion at the local pub, we hit the sack early..
