Bol

The fast ferry to Brac Island was great.  Only took an hour and the ride was smooth. 

Once arriving at the city of Bol, I walked to Zlatni Rat Beach, aka Golden Horn Beach.  This beach is what I wanted to see.  It is famous because it changes shape due to the tides and its shape resembles a horn.

It is a small pebble beach

Relaxing on Zlatni Rat beach and enjoying listening to the Bee Gees and other American/English songs.  Guess good music is universal.

This is the life… just laying on a comfy couch with shade and sun with a lemoncello, great music and no place I have to go for awhile.

The beach is made up of small pebbles and the water is cool, clear and blue.  Love the pebble beach. No irritating sand all over everything.  

Well.. finally walked back to the port and found an awesome place to eat.  Argentino’s. A bit of an uphill walk, but great food.  Had to try the local lamb stew with homemade ginochi.  Can’t say I am a fan of the lamb but the ginochi was great. 

While waiting for my ferry back just had to try this ice cream… pistachio and hazelnut.

Yummy ice cream

Bol, or Brac the island, is famous for its stones due to their durability.  These stones went into the building of Diocletian’s Palace and even the White House. 

Tomorrow I begin my volunteering journey.

This is how it looked as I left hours later.  Did the shape change?
