Some of the highlights involved relaxing on the beach, swimming in beautiful waters, renting our own boat (even though it topped out at 5 mph), entering a croatia 3 on 3 basketball tournament, and riding vespas. We have all talked about renting a boat and riding vespas in nearly every city we've been in.
I didn't get any pictures from Hvar because I left my phone in Split, the city we were staying in, but we had a blast. We rode our mo peds to the top of the island and enjoyed a fantastic view of the Dalmatian islands. The dog got it's name from the dalmatian coast because there are thousands of tiny islands that line the coast of Croatia. We had appetizers at the top of Hvar as we watched a beautiful sunset.
Below is a picture of me driving our speed boat.
I was enjoying every second we got to spend on the boat!
We were able to dock and snorkel for a little while, thanks to Taylor buying some trusty goggles!
This last picture is of the 3 on 3 basketball tournament we came across along the port of Split, very close to the place we were staying.
There was no fee to enter this tournament, and there were 3 of us, so we had no choice but to enter. We were put up against three huge Croatians our first game! They stood, 6'5" 6'6" and 6'8"! We put up a good fight though and got a couple cheers from the crowd, losing 7-11. We didn't have any excuse for the second game we lost, we just played poorly. Being able to play basketball right next to the port like that in front of a bunch of Croatians was one of the highlights of the entire trip for me!
We are now in London and loving it! We are soaking up the last few days we have over here. We are staying with a great family, who have cooked us five awesome meals already! It is such a blessing to taste home cooked meals after 5 weeks of eating out.
