Croatia #2 - killing time in Sievnik

I'm currently chilling in an internet cafe in Sievnik, waiting around until midnight for our bus to Dubrovnik. Today was fun, we went to the Krka National Park, and saw more waterfalls! It was a bit chilly, so we didn't take the oppurtunity to swim, but we walked around the park a bit and I did some drawing. Once again, public drawing led to people watching what I was doing...why do people assume that if you're drawing in public you must be really talented and worth watching? Haha...

The last few days we have been hanging around near Split. We checked out the city, which ended up being exciting because there was a huge rainstorm! There was also some crazy weather on the island of Hvar, we awoke one morning to a thundering hail storm! It was pretty exciting, and cleared up quickly so that was nice too. We spent one really nice sunny day on Hvar, walked up to the fortress and then relaxed on the beach all afternoon. In the evening we actually splurged and had dinner in a resturant (as opposed to the grocery store / swiss army knife experience of most nights), and then went to a couple bars. We met 2 American guys and hung out with them, and drank some wine near the harbour.

Tonight we are heading to Dubrovnik, and will arrive there at 5:45 am, eep! After a day or 2 there we're moving on to Greece!

Subtle, Jacqui, subtle. Almost as slyly hinting as this message is cryptically knowing.
