Day 35- It’s Just a Wave Passing Over Me
7 de setembro de 2020, Croácia ⋅ ☀️ 27 °C
The morning started with a trip to the supermarket upstairs for a loaf of bread & strawberry jam. After breakfast, I set out our sun beds & marked our territory with towels. I then ran upstairs to the car to inflate zoom lolly lilo & met Jackie back on the pontoon. I was knackered.
We got settled & Jackie took the lilo out for a spin. I was minding my own business being nosey, when suddenly I was saturated. A wave had crashed over the pontoon & covered the sun beds in salty water. These waves continued for the rest of the day forcing us to move our sun beds back up the jetty.
These choppy waters I hope are not a sign of things to come, particularly trying to get back to the UK. It is an absolute nightmare trying to work out the best route home & what we need to do before & at the border crossings. We are praying that Croatia is taken off the high risk list in the very near future, but that would be a miracle.
Late morning, we went for our customary run to Blace Beach & back, followed by a swim. I returned to the supermarket to buy some bottles of beer to accompany the remainder of last nights pasta for lunch. I noticed that there was an additional charge with the beers & we currently believe it is a deposit on the bottles. We had just been putting them in an empty crate at the front of the supermarket, which might explain why some little old man who sits outside is always happy to see us. He is probably returning into the supermarket & getting 15 pence for each.
There wasn’t so much happening aboard the yachts in the afternoon, so I read my book, Paul Theroux’s The Pillars of Hercules - A Grand Tour of the Mediterranean. Jackie had a snooze.
We had dinner back downstairs in the evening & although we had pork skewers & chicken again, it didn’t seem as delicious as the previous evening. We did confirm that the extra charge for the beers was a deposit for the bottles.
