Vis to Hvar, Croatia
My Croatian dream continues, off to Hvar! First a stop at a point where there was a shipwreck. My three loves jumped in and did a snorkel. Then we did a number of stops in different coves on Paklinski Otoci. They really are all the same, a few big mega yachts, beautiful blue water, great visibility and a few naked people here and there. We found one that had a few cool beach clubs with cabanas and day beds over the water. Some were super chic and others had a cool Bohemian vibe with giant bean bags to lay on. Found ourselves a chill spot, set anchor, swam and had lunch. Finished up playing cards in the bow and a little nap.
Officially off to Hvar. Found our place on Google Maps which was right near the gas dock. No line and after missing out getting gas the first day in Vis we took advantage and filled up while we waited for our host to greet us. Everything off the boat and ready to go when he arrives. Kids and I ended up waiting for the guys while they set anchor out in the bay and had to swim ashore.
We this time our place wasn't the top floor, but top of the hill. We always say our family motto when something gets hard or we make a wrong turn, "It's an adventure!" and this was one of those moments since it was hot and we were tired.
On the way to dinner there was a fig plant on the side of the road where Andy stopped to have a little treat.
Went to a charming place for dinner where they were so nice! They had a charcoal grill that was visible from the table that looked like it would cook the most flavorful food so we had steak and fish. Other then always having bread it seems the new normal is to also have octopus salad. All a treat.
Started to walk the town and the lights went it, but it is a full moon and there are enough battery powered lights on tables and the lights from the yachts that we could wander the seafront walk. This is definitely the place to see and be seen. Lots of beautiful people, big yachts and fabulous clothes!
