Zadar
21. maj, Kroatien ⋅ ☁️ 21 °C
I thought today was going to be a forced relaxed day as last night it said thunderstorms would start overnight…but we woke up to nice skies and the forecast changed to severe thunderstorms at 11. Since we get up early we decided we would go into Zadar and see what we could see before it stormed…only it never stormed! It got overcast and cold and breezy, but no storms! We kept looking at the radar and it was all around us, but not on the city so that was great! But then we had a long day since we wanted to see all the things!
We had a fun wander around the city and had lunch out and got some more dried figs and cherries from the market. A long time ago when Raymond and I were flying somewhere I read in the airplane magazine about Zadar and the sea Organ that plays music with the water so of course I was like someday we should go see that! Well today was the day! And it was a lot of fun! I took some video, but it was so windy! Still fun! Zadar old town felt much different than the other ones we have been to. Much more like it was just people who live there. Lots of apartments, there is a college on one side so lots of kids, just people living and not only tourists which was nice.
Also saw a sign that said “men of Zadar” and it turned out it was the first public transportation here. Men would row you across the water (on the inland side - it’s not very far - the small red rowboat in the one photo is a man of Zadar! He would take you over to the red point) which you could still do for a euro twenty/person (and we did see lots of ladies doing just that!)
By the time we left it was sunny and gorgeous so we went down to the beach here (the last 3 photos) to try out our new water shoes and they are great! No more jabby rocks in our shoes or hurting our feet! So that is good (the beaches are like all little jabby rocks. Or at least almost all rocky).
We went down to the beach again for sunset as it looked like it would actually be nice and it was! Hooray! The past 2 nights it has been really cloudy and no sunset at all last night because of the clouds. Plus we found a collection of tiny shells :) There haven’t been many shells we have seen so that was fun. All in all a great day!Læs mere
