Ho Hum Monday

The weather here is instant – one minute you have blue sky, and then the clouds gather over the mountain, and down comes the rain – big fat heavy drops.

Yes, it’s raining again, but there is no wind -the weather forecast in the paper says clouds, thunder and a bit of rain for today same for tomorrow, and for Thursday – but check out the temperatures! Sea temperature 20 and air temperature a high of 29 and a low of 20. I’m enjoying the warmth and at least when it rains it doesn’t usually last for long and the clouds skud away quite quickly. You get a nice little opening to grab a coffee.

Speaking of which I did my run today to Krvavica and instead of taking an hour, it took two hours – that’s what happens when you start to know people! Got way-laid in a cafe (oops, in running clothes, oh the shame!).

I’ve been trying to work out a cunning plan to get back from Italy in the middle of June – not an easy thing to do at this time of year – planes, there are heaps of options but they start at $360 but include three stops and an eleven hour stopover in Germany – seriously, you can see Italy on a clear day from Biokovo! Why is it so hard to get there??

Looked at trains – a few options but they included arriving in Zagreb for a second train – at 2 in the morning. That doesn’t sound like me.
So, last option, ferries – may work. Ho Hum. I don’t understand why it is so hard to get from This Country to The Other European Countries. Another month and a half and Easyjet clicks in with a nice little flight for $150.00. When I was going through this process today, I realized that this is just a wee trial run for trying to get back to Rome to fly back home again in October! Of course, I’ll be good at it by then. so - za danas je dosta - for today, that is enough!
