Mission accomplished we now have our bags, I am quite relieved. Got back front he airport and jumped into our bathing suits and headed for the beach. I hate cold water and would rather just look at the water no matter how hot I am if its too cold. The Adriatic is not a bathtub like the turquoise Caribbean but its close, the best is I could see all the way to to bottom, the water is a light green color and so clear I could see my toes even with the water up to my neck. Did a fabulous power walk in the water, it was good. Came home got unpacked (finally) and headed out for some more exploring. An observation that Jim and I have made is that there are a substantial amount of kids here and they act like kids but they don't scream, they are not out of control nor do they act wild or throw tantrums. Jim is convinced its diet, these kids are not loaded with sugar or unnatural hormones or preservatives.

Something very sane about this way of life, everyone rides a bicycle, in fact there are more bikes on the road than cars. No helmets but for some reason it seems O.K. no one is in a race, its just how you get from one place to another. Our hosts left us two bikes, we are doing a long ride tomorrow morning.

There is a spinning class on the beach tomorrow and Jim and I are going to see how we do.
