i had no idea that croatia has about a thousand or more islands. very laid back scene here. this is where i would like to retire. people seem to have all the time in the world, where old men stroll down the boardwalk wearing their tweed caps with hands behind their back. you see the older women bumping into each other on the streets where they know everyone..chatting and gossiping for hours..this is my kind of city flow.

in croatia im known as "kike" (kee-keh). just a croatian-ized nick name i was given..made me feel special.

learned: hadjuk is their football club where you see their logo at every corner, the old peeps hang out in the centre close by the riva (a palm tree-d boardwalk that is undergoing construction), split is in the region of dalamatia which is in the south - apparently thats where dalmatian dogs come from, in february they celebrate halloween called "maskare," they have a beautiful palace; the only one where people still live and its not expensive

noticed: the dogs here are the cutest, i only saw one dalmatian and it only had one spot that was brown, people take life slow, everyone knows everyone, when you arrive at bus station you got old grammas asking u if u want to stay at their home for a small fee.

words: see bosnia and herzegovina
