CELEBRATING IN HVAR, CROATIA

 Saturday, August 27

Our last destination was Hvar.  We took a fast boat from Split to Hear and arrived at 12:30.  We stayed at Amfora in Hvar.  We spent the rest of the day by the pool.  We walked into Hvar city for dinner and ate a local restaurant.  We had a beef & chicken plate for two.  Delicious



Cruising into Hvar




Sunday, August 28

We spent the day at the beach which was rocky and hard on our feet.  Water was clear and good. 

We walked into Hvar for pizza for dinner in the main plaza.





Monday, August 29

Another day of relaxing at the pool!  We again walked to the main plaza of Hvar and had pasta at sunset.








Tuesday, August 30

Our last full day of our European vacation to celebrate Don's 70th birthday and our 50th anniversary.  We rented a cabana over the Adriatic Sea and had the most marvelous day.









Wednesday, August 31

We had a 7:55 am flight from Split to Munich and then on to Chicago and Cedar Rapids.  We hired a private boat to take us from Hvar to Split where a driver met us to get us to the airport.  The hour plus boat ride was beautiful as the sun rose over the sea.  Business class flights made the trip enjoyable and we arrived back in CR at 9:00 pm Iowa time!  






What a month of celebrating!
