Korčula Town & Vrbovika, Korčula

Tuesday we woke up to our beautiful new place and Lucy (the owner) dropped us in town to explore. We shopped and walked the streets of old town, which is also a walled city. Gideon needed a Croatian football kit and Elliot found some local coral earrings. We had lunch on the water- yummy mussels, calamari, risotto and sandwich and enjoyed the view. Gelato and a walk up to more shops where we picked up some balls for the water and food to grill for dinner. We came home and swam until dinner. I think we all had the best nights sleep that we have had in weeks.

Today was a chill beach day, much needed by all. Even the kids said that this was one of the best days so far. We had brunch and then spent the day at the beach. It was much more quiet today which was perfect and we each had nice paddle boarding rides, snorkeling and swimming. Gid found a sea urchin and we enjoyed the coral and fish swimming around us. It is difficult to capture the color and clarity of the water. Everywhere you swim, no matter how deep, you can see clear to the bottom. So beautiful. We had a picnic lunch and read and hung out.

For dinner we went to the other little spot by our house. Homemade noodles and beef, chicken burgers, hamburgers with house cut fries and homemade buns as the sun set on our last day in our little off the beaten path place. Home for showers and snuggles before bed.Read more
