Sarah and I are now on an island called Brac in a town named Bol, there is a beach of sorts but there is no sand. We found a hotel that is almost in our budget (it is if we dont indulge in other things such as wine, which we actually have been... , and is three times cheaper than it is in tourist season), comes with breakfast and dinner and we have taken a break for 3 days to rest and relax in luxury. We had massages the other day and have enjoyed having no new bug bites while in the rooms (we had a couple in Zadar and Split that have still not dissapeared). We are also both more tanned then when we got here, and it is easy to watch the planes fly around because (untill today) I have not seen even a single cloud in the sky. We went swimming in the ocean today and it was very cold, but bearable for a couple minuets. The water is perfectly clear in a way I have never seen before, and it is amazing.

Tomorrow we check out and will be dawning our backpacks once again (and probably non stop untill we return to Calgary) and heading off for the island Hvar for a couple days before we go onto onto Dubrovnik and then Bari (in Italy).

In Zadar we met two australians on their honeymoon in our first hostel, we saw then for a couple seconds when we got off the bus at the national parks (though they were getting onto our bus so we didnt chat long), and we saw them today in downtown (as much as there is one) Bol, I thought it was humerous that we have ran into them so much and as they are already on Hvar we will probably be seeing them again soon.

Hope you are all jealous of my gloriouly sunny days,
Ian
