Hop to Brač

We had packed the essentials for a bicycle tour of the Dalmatian islands: tennis balls, frisbee and swimwear. To get away from Split, we had to go into it first. This meant some horrible city and highway traffic that was either parallel to or driving with us. We took bicycle detours where we could, till we reached the port. What a hot and sunny day to be starting for Kiran.

"Do you want to go look at some amazing Roman ruins?"
"No, let's just look at the boats."
Civilization needs to do more to be relevant to us.

We went on board the ferry to Supetar on Brač island. We headed straight out of town along the coast, and could immediately feel the slower pace and relaxed space of Island life. We jumped into beaches and swam and played catch.

Kiran was game for it, so we tried to find a natural camp spot. There in a forest next to the clear blue waters was a good spot to pitch the tent. He said in his cute accent, "This is really freedom papa!". As we lay down to sleep in the tent, I smiled on how our first day back on the road was ending.Læs mere
