Well… off on my way to Croatia. Long journey here stopping in Atlanta and Munich with long layovers. In Atlanta I took advantage of Priorty Lounge and found comfort there. I worked on beginning my blog and then was contacted by the coordinator for the Bear Sanctuary project and discovered she still needed some information from me. A questionnaire, but it was rather detailed and had 16 questions. So I worked on it during this layover and the next.
Took advantage of being in Atlanta and had to try the fried chicken, collard greens, and rosemary tater tots. It was good, but the collard greens were alittle salty. Probably the best thing was the biscuit which was buttery and crispy on the outside.
In Munich, I tried the sausage, sourkraut, and mashed potatoes. The sourkraut was yummy.
Long trips on the airplanes (8 – 9 hrs), I was very tired and able to sleep somewhat. Flying into Split was on a smaller plane so it was a bit cramped, but only for 2 hours. Upon arrival, it was easy, no immigration. Guess I did that all in Munich.
Took the shuttle from the airport and it took me right to the old town. It was an 8-minute walk to my accommodation, which was inside Diocletian’s Palace.
A little problem finding the right place because it was like a maze inside. Corridors going all over the place.
Was suppose to do a boat ride to Blue Cave and 5 Islands, but it was canceled due to predicted thunderstorms on friday then again on Saturday. It only rained alittle on friday. Will see what it does today. So I went on a walking tour, explored the town, went to the underground of the Palace and went to Game of Thrones Museum.
Today, I’ll walk up the bell tower, go to Diocletian’s Dream and walk to Marjan Hill (depending on weather)
Tomorrow I am taking the fast ferry to Bol. I hope the ride will be smooth. There is Zlatni Rat beach I want to see (aka Golden Horn Beach). The shape of the beach changes due to the tide. Upon return, the coordinator will pick me up and I will start on program.
Well, I visited the museums, the bell tower, and walked 30 minutes up Marjan Hill. On my way back there was a downpour and I got soaked!
So after visiting the sites and eating my way through Split I will leave for a day Bol to see Zlatni Rat then start my volunteering.
