Goodbye Vis and thanks for all the fish


Day 10 (Friday)

Sadly toady is our last full day on Vis as we island hop tomorrow to Brac, via Split.  We have become very fond of Komiza and its many charms over the last week.  The Rough Guide describes Komiza as achingly beautiful and we would definitely agree.  It was the perfect introduction to Croatian island life and we have tried very hard to immerse ourselves in it.
We walked to the beach this morning having stopped in the square for our morning coffee and bakery visit first and our trip the fruit market to buy peaches.  If we eat any more peaches we are going to start looking like them but they are truly delicious and make the perfect picnic lunch for the beach.  We spent the day reading and swimming as you would expect before returning to Villa Nonna to pack before heading out for our supper.

We have made a new friend of the Bosnian waiter in Pizzeria Charly despite our faux pas earlier in the week when we assumed he was Croatian.  Bosnia were playing Wales in a friendly football match on Wednesday evening and they won 2:0  so we were able to congratulate him which he was delighted about. 

There is currently much competition to see who can read the most books during the trip and the scores so far are:

Tracey   4             Mark     1

Mark claims that this is because he has to update the blog, look for our next accommodation each night and that I read chick lit but naturally I would beg to differ.

Remind me again why we felt it necessary to bring quite as much as we did……I am sure this bag is getting fuller every time I re-pack it.
