Croatia 2009




















Dinner at Nanini - best restaurant on the island!





























Hiking on Zlarin with the group!
















Mark (the other guide) and I - it never rains in Croatia! ;)




















Octopus Peka for dinner - YUM!!




































Our house - pre-renovation!



















Our two little boats...































This is the view from the bottom of our stairs.

















Our vegetable garden - we eat something out of it everyday - delicious lettuces - although we are going to have to make a scarecrow as we have lots of crows!

















Some island pics - the village square with the war memorial, the church steeple, whose bells toll on the hour...very hour... :)




































A very strong south wind (called Yugo) was blowing on this day - the sea was massive and the ferry couldn't run! It was amazing to watch the sea wash right up into the alleyways between the houses and right into the terraces of the restaurants.
