Split -- 7/22

Caught the 9:30 catamaran directly from our riva to Split. First really
hot day in a pleasant week.

Walked the harbor to Archaeological Monument (Spomenika) Museum, then to
Mestrovich gallery and kastela. Back to Diocletian's palace. Julia
climbed the campanella at the palace. Pivo and kava, then catamaran
home. About 7 hours total time. Saw L. on cat. Saw Slavko and his
cousin, Ivana, the archaeology student, when we returned.

I was overheated the whole day, moving faintly from shade to shade as
Julia raced from sight to site. She was a powerhouse! Our top three
items each for trip:

John:

1.

Seeing three sailing dinghys of the type I've been looking at
building sailing in harbor.

2.

Being saved by "fast food" cevapi (Bosnian mild sausage) – robust
sandwich – and eating it in the shade in the park by the sea.

3.

Crashing prostrate on leather couch on second floor of Mestrovich
gallery, shoes and cap off, while Julia viewed the art. (Another
life saver. Nothing and no-one could induce me to move until I was
ready. See photo.)

Julia:

1.

Viewing Mestrovich sculpture.

2.

Climbing the campanella and the view over the palace and the town.

3.

Eating 'fast food' veggie pizza at non-tourist place and park.
