Day 34: Dubrovnik/ Trojir/Split/Biograd

This morning, we all woke up really late for us (7:40am), considering the beds weren’t all that comfy. Soon after, we headed out to find some pastries to get for breakfast. They were delicious! We’ve been quite disappointed with Dubrovnik, because it’s become so touristy that it’s lost all it’s culture. We would walk through the town and there would be restaurants side by side, cooking pizza, pasta, burgers, and fish and chips. After we checked out, we drove 1:30 hours to Split , when we realised that we were 50 metres away from crossing the Croatian boarder into Bosnia. We were only in Bosnia for about 7 kilometres, along the highway, but we managed to find a small, local bakery to grab pastries at. I was the most enthusiastic to step out of the car, so that I could say that I’ve been to Bosnia. After our unexpected pit stop, we kept on driving to Split ,to go to a huge decathlon, which as you can imagine, dad loved ;). From decathlon, we bought some headlamps for the boat, and some waterproof clothes for our kayaking trip in Norway. After that detour, we drove 1 hour to Trojir, where we walked around and had lunch. We grabbed some food from a local bakery, and went to sit on a park bench, overlooking the water. After a decent explore in the town, we then drove our final 2 hours to Biograd, where we are staying just for one night. When we arrived, we checked in to the apartment and quickly got settled before we decided that we needed a swim. At the beach, we found an awesome bar, where you basically sit on a chair drinking your drink, in a knee-high pool. I’m still desperate to go parasailing, so we went to check out the watersports company. They did have parasailing, but they said that the conditions were changing, so we would have to go right then if we wanted to go at all. Mum and dad thought it way too much pressure, but they said we could definitely do it at 10:00am tomorrow. After another swim in the beach, we grabbed some dinner, and walked back to our accomodation. When we had just left the beach, it started bucketing down with rain, so we had to run home as fast as we could in our swimsuits and towels. We knew tomorrow was going to be a big day, so we went to bed early.
