Wrapping things up in Hvar




So we hit the castle and it was hot as hell and straight up the mountain, but we took the stone steps and not the side of the hill like Justin. The castle was much more "castley" than the castle in Prague. This one had a prison/dungeon and all. The pic is of Josh in one of the prison cells... not such pleasant place, and it was so small that it must have been built for captured hobbits. The video is of Hvar harbor from the top of the castle. We opted to hang out in the one of the local sports bars after having felt like we'd accomplished something. Then that night met some people from LA and some norwegians. The norwegians (sp?) were trying to sell us on Norway, but the said the main reasons we should go to Norway are for the cute girls (which I didn't buy based on the current company) and outdoor activities. I told them it's way too cold and dark, and that I think snowboarding is the only thing that Norway has to going for it. So I'm obviously not sold on Norway, but they were pretty cool. It's funny being in Croatia and the most common language here is English. Since people from all over Europe and the world come here for holiday, the most common language that you hear is English. And Sherry, you would love it here! ...this place is hot, has beaches, and LOTS of Aussies and Brits. We've been running into Aussies and Brits all week. The last pic is of part of the town square on the harbor. The outdoor cafe in the picture is where we would have a couple beers every afternoon. ...now back to Split.
