• Split rest day

    September 29 in Croatia ⋅ 🌙 16 °C

    It was great to have a sleep in and later breakfast this morning. Gayle video called Donna and caught up on the Canberra and family news. We enjoyed the buffet breakfast before heading out to take in the sights.

    As far as we can tell, there's a lot of Americans and Australians in Split. Theres at least two cruise ships in port, so older visitors, lots of flag bearing tour guides - you know my thoughts on flag bearing tour guides and don't get me started on cruise ships!

    It was quite a lazy day for us - we're over halfway through the cycling trip, and the rest and recuperation will help. Lunch was burek from a nearby bakery - we had a cheese filled and beef filled burek - it's a filo pastry delight! I love how you can buy a beer at a bakery to wash it down.

    In the evening, we met up at 5.45pm for drinks put on by Thomo and Nicole, celebrating their recent nuptials, which was very nice of them.

    We then walked to our restaurant along the waterside, Brasserie no. 7
    A lovely evening was had with great food and even better company.
