On to our last stop which will be. . . .






















Okay, we only have a bit of time as it is nearly 7:00 AM Thursday and we are leaving Hvar Island on a catamaran at 7:30 to return to Split, Croatia. We will have some time for a walk about the old town before heading to the airport to fly to. . .

Here are two pics before we go from our visit to the Blue Cave. We traveled about 1.5 hours by BOAT to get here then got into a smaller craft to enter the cave. You need to duck as you pass through the opening to avoid hitting your head on the rock formations. Once inside the view is quite unusual. The cave walls go beneath the surface of the water but not to the ocean floor. The blue lighting occurs at a certain time of day when the sun hits just right and reflects back up into the cave. We also went for a swim in another cave "The Green Cave" which was also very cool.

Okay, we've got to run. You will hear from us again (maybe tomorrow) from our next and last stop.
