We had a wonderful breakfast at the hotel - best one yet - complete with fresh squeezed OJ and champagne (I do love a good mimosa!). We explored the city, although it was a dreary day, but we really enjoyed it. It was not very crowded and some places made us feel like we were the only tourists. We visited the Botanical Gardens, St. Marks church, the cathedral, and just walked all over. All of the architecture was beautiful and you could see the Italian influence. We had lunch at our hotel (I had an amazing puff pastry stuffed with a lobster and leek cream sauce, topped with truffles) and then we packed as it was our last night in Croatia.

Sataa ja salamoi. Nukuin pitkaan enka pitanyt kiiretta lahdon kanssa. Hostellissa taisi olla lisakseni enaa nelja majoittujaa. Tein lahtoselvityksen paluulennolle. Unohdin hetkeksi passini olohuoneeseen, enka ollut edes tarvinnut sita lahtoselvityksessa. Koska talle paivalle oli ennustettu sadetta, olin varannut talle paivalle paivalipun joukkoliikenteeseen.

Ajoin ensin kaakkoon, sitten pohjoiseen ja siella viela erillisen pikkulinjan 15 paahan. Tuolloin ei enaa satanut, joten kokosin kertakayttosadetakin reppuun. Sitten keskusaukiolle ja pitkalle lanteen. Kavin syomassa ratikkalinjojen paatepysakilla, josta lahti lukuisia bussilinjoja. Tarjoilija ei osannut varsinaisesti englantia, mutta ruokalista oli e... read more

Aamulla vatsa tuntui sen verran loysalta, etta paatin ottaa immodiumia. Olin asemalla klo 9.40. Klo 10:n bussi oli myyty tayteen. Sain lipun klo 11 lahtevaan.

Kavin ostamassa keskiviikoksi junalipun Budapestiin, tai no sekin oli avoin lippu. Sitten kavelin vanhaankaupunkiin. Ensin kavin oluella ja myohemmin lasagnella. Kavelin hostellille. Hostelliin oli majoittunut myos suomalainen Eemeli ja kaksi uruguaylaista tyttoa, jotka olivat maailmanymparimatkalla.... read more
