Day 17 -- Day Off #1



Charlotte: Today we had a free day for excursions and other activities. Several of my classmates and I took a charter boat trip to the islands of Hvar and Brac. We spent an hour on the island of Hvar (pronounced HA-Var) were we saw the small island town and walked around. Then we went to the island of Brac. Brac (pronounced Brach) was the most beautiful island we have been to on the Croatian coast. We spent three hours here in which our group spent almost the whole time sun bathing and enjoying the gorgeous views of the coast and the mountains. Bol (pronounced Bowl), the beach on Brac, was also very interesting for its peninsula/beach. The beaches here are all stones and depending on the time of day and the current the direction of the end of the peninsula/beach can change. We also saw some kind of supermodel photo shoot on the beach while we were laying out. We then took the chartered boat back to Makarska. Our classmates who stayed behind in Makarska enjoyed the day on the beach and rented paddle boats with slides on them.
