Heidi & Richard Bendel's travels

13 August, 2006

We woke up to rain- heavy rain! We had a late breakfast and caught up with our admin. It then cleared and we took a walk on an island called Ciovo island. It was not a very nice walk because it was on the side of the main road, but it was along the waters edge. We then walked around the town which is so picturesque and we went up the fortress and to the castle. It then started to storm again so we got back to our room to keep dry and when it stopped raining we headed out across the bridge to the island once again but this time we walked the other way. This was prettier but I would not recommend anyone to attempt to drive on this island. The bridge in itself is horrendous to cross by car and then the traffic backs up. Ciovo Island does have lovely beaches so if one does want to stay on the island, one should drive, park and leave the car for the rest of the stay. Even in Trogir, you don't want to drive around at all, you need to park and leave the car. In the evening we had a very good grill at our Hotel Pasike. It was a good evening browsing around the busy streets.
