Korcula

This place is incredible. We caught a ferry this morning to Korcula, a walled town on an island. The ferry ride was beautiful: so many islands in the adriatic and the sea was very smooth. We had fun talking to a couple from Salt Lake City celebrating their 10th anniversary.

People are very relaxed and friendly. This town is like Dubrovnic with narrow lanes and beautiful architecture. We found a great apartment right away. It was remodeled a year ago with a kitchen, bath, living room and bedroom plus air conditioning and ocean views for $40. We had a picnic on the beach and wandered around. Lots of stores with pretty jewelry made by local artisans. Very relaxing day.

We are going down for cocktails and sunset then another fish dinner :). We catch another ferry for Split tomorrow morning and will be meeting Irena and her sister Vedrena in the afternoon. We will spend the weekend with them and get the real scoop on Croatia, food, wine etc. Actually we're doing really well figuring it out ourselves. We are doing daily gelato, wine, espresso and of course fish tasting. Some stuff is very inexpensive: gelato is $1.00, espress is is $1.40, groceries are a bargain, but restaurants tend to be about the same prices as at home.

We're eager to read more comments from you all.

Hope you are all well, check out our pic of Dubrovnik.
