We are finally here! This trip was originally planned for June 2020 which Rona cancelled and re-booked for July 2021. As that was also cancelled we decided to try for a different part of Croatia, however a month ago we found out that due to drop outs, that had also been cancelled! So.. we’re back to where we started and will be spending the next week exploring Dubrovnik, Split, Montenegro, Bosnia Herzegovina and the Dalmation Coast.
Due to the recent dramas at Manchester airport we decided to give ourselves plenty of time.. and that meant a 0230 alarm 😭 however they were incredibly organised and we flew through security! This meant plenty of time to sniff out somewhere suitable for breakfast. However as we are creatures of habit, we went to Pret 👍 This was our first time flying Jet2, and we somehow ended up with a whole row to ourselves!
As you know by now, we love an escorted tour holiday. We met our guide Ivan and headed for the wanker bus which will be our ride for the next week. As this was a 3 hour journey, there won’t be much more to this blog for today. However we have already started sussing out our group and there is definitely a mature friends with benefits couple on here.
We are staying in a hotel in Drvenik for the next 3 nights and were able to have a little explore this evening. The water is crystal clear and the views are beautiful. We managed to find a viewpoint up rather steep and windy road, but it was worth the sweaty walk. As its not quite the start of the season, the majority of the cafes and bars are closed (obvs) however we spotted a cute looking bar by the waterfront so we will definitely be checking that out over the next few nights.
I know many of you are wondering… where is Santa? Fear not… he’s taking his sleigh (better known as the Eurostar) to Bruges for a lads lads lads sesh.
