Visiting Stari Grad and Driving to Zadar

ByTravelling Minion November 23, 2018 2 Comments
Heading to Stari Grad Aside from Hvar Town and the Blue Caves, the other noteworthy spot we looked up while on Hvar Island is Stari Grad. We read that Stari Grad is a smaller and quieter town in comparison to Hvar Town. It's a beautiful seaside town, so we wanted to check it out. We drove for 20 minutes from our AirBnB, past the ferry terminal and into Stari Grad. It's a small town and we almost...

Morning came pretty quickly! In fact we got up a little earlier so that we could grab a quick breakfast before meeting the boat that would be taking us to the Blue Caves. We strolled into the center of town and we were treated to the beautiful seaside town that is Hvar Town! After grabbing breakfast, we walked over to the port/dock area where we waited to meet our boat. Gimpy had booked this Blue...

It was another beautiful...

We eventually stumbled upon a small restaurant that had a pretty standard english breakfast that we decided to have. While it wasn't the best breakfast I'd ever had, it was good...

Zagreb, Part 1 The first order of business today is definitely food. Skipping dinner and only snacking made for a hungry Minion and Gimpy. After checking out of our AirBNB and storing our luggage at the bus station, we were ready to head into the centre of the city. Otto and Frank Gimpy had looked up a breakfast spot called Otto and Frank that looked to be well reviewed. So it was the first place...

Its a travel day! We are leaving Turkey today and making our way to Zagreb. We woke up and did some final packing to ensure all of our stuff fit in our bags and newly purchased suitcase. After making sure everything was sorted, we checked out with our host who was nice enough to store our luggage until it was time for us to head to the airport. McDonalds For lunch we decided to visit a McDonalds....
