European Party

Well, this is really crappy.  The postal service didn’t send my computer to Bol because they think I owe them some money, so I had to go back to Split for another 3 days.  But I met a group of fun Swedes so it turned out alright.

Still stuck in Bol waiting for my computer, I did some windsurfing.

I had to come back to Bol because my computer broke a couple weeks ago in Zagreb and my friend sent a replacement here.  On my first night back I listened to a wonderful acapella group who just set up their sound equipment in the main square.

I took a small boat from Bol to Hvar, and stayed only one night, Wednesday, July 4th.  Remembering the date I got homesick for Hermosa.  But luckily I met and had dinner with some Canadians who were more my speed than the revelers I had met on Bol.  (Of course, the Canadians couldn’t completely sympathize with me though.  ;-) 

And I stayed the night at the pension of a local celebrity.  This old man fishes with only a fishing line off the harbor walls - he used to just use his hands - and travel channels take, what he calls unauthorized, video of him and his dog.

I hung out in Bol for 3 days, which is actually a bit long for a town this small, but they do have a bar with some flare.

I met who I thought were some very cool and beautiful Belgian girls who I made plans with to see the next night.  I told them it would be best if they gave me their phone number in case anything untoward happened.  Aurelie asked, “You don’t believe me?”  I said, “Yes”, and actually extended my stay in Split for her, but she stood me up.  Very poor showing on her part…  Oh, well, easy come, easy go.

I stopped by Krka National Park on my way from Zagreb to Split.
