Today we got into Split in Croatia…we got a stamp in our passport!! The first one since we left!!
We began the mission to find our hostel, and once we found it were led another 3 blocks to an old ladies house. Our room was her room.
Yes thats right…we were flatties with an old lady!!
We entered her room to fing her dresses hanging in the wardrobe, family photos on the mantle piece and her books everywhere…but there was also a comfy bed and we were happy!!
The old lady (we still dont know her name as she didnt speak a WORD of english) was awesome as she did our washing. Wash, dried and folded. Just like living at Mum Deaths house!!
We headed into town to pick up some of the local cash (Kuna) which is 10 Kuna to 1 Pound!! We picked up some food and showered. There is nothing better than having a shower after 2 days without one. We probley shouldn’t tell you that!!
That afternoon (after watching the Olympics with the ‘old lady’) we checked out the local markets amd the Split Castle which circles the city centre. We finally found a decent place to eat that evening and then hit the sack…my god a bed feels good after two nights on the ground, we felt like Tom Hanks in that ‘Castaway’ movie!
The old lady slept on the couch.
