"hOw'S tHe SeReNiTy"

50% old town. 50% hike to a stunning and secluded corner of the peninsula.

The morning began with us paying the tourist tax for a very worthy cause - the chance to drink a coffee in Diocletians palace 🤩 during this time a Roman asked Alfred to hold onto his pilum while he had a tea break and Alfred was utterly thrilled. Alfred led me around the ticketed parts of the palace on a private walking tour (because he knows just about everything there is to know about Diocletian) and we were impressed but also grateful for our student discount!

In the afternoon we packed a picnic lunch and hiked up to a lookout on the hill where they have prohibited construction for the last few decades. The climb was not too bad compared to some of our previous efforts 🌋⛰️🚵‍♀️ but the view was quite spectacular! We took a climbing route down which was a bit more adventurous before arriving at a quiet little beach where we had the most relaxing afternoon. Alfred felt very vindicated as he finally got proper use of his hammock and we all thoroughly enjoyed the swim (except the bit where we had to dig some sea urchin spines out of some feet) 😶Read more
