Homeward Bound

All good things must come to an end, but aren’t we lucky that the end of vacation means returning to St. Croix?! But before we made our way back to reality, there were plenty of adventures (and great meals!) to be had in Croatia and Italy.

Split is the second largest city in Croatia. Though not as picturesque as Dubrovnik, you really need more than an afternoon stroll to take it all in. While wandering around, we saw this boat that looks very similar to the St. Croix to St. Thomas ferry! Being on the shore of the Adriatic Sea, there were many more impressive yachts.

Our final cruise stop was Primosten, an islet in the south of Croatia before spending four days in Venice. In case you’re wondering what two island guys do while traveling the Mediterranean….take in the beach and as much fresh fish as possible, of course! Sea bream and dorada, plus oysters, mussels, clams and octopus, were all on the menu. I had vongole, small, sweet clams, for almost every meal in Venice!
