Colin: Today we loaded up early for our trip back to Zagreb. While we had the "Purple Horse" bus for our trip back, we did not have our favorite driver, Franjo (they had to send two drivers just to make up for him!)Everybody was very sedate on the 6 hour trip back to Zagreb and many of the folks just slept. The joke made by one of the professors was that we were going to stop to see a church on the way back (it seems like we have visited every church in every town in Croatia in 3.5 weeks sometimes...). The weather was bright, and clear and windy, and you could see forever it seemed!
We checked back into the Hotel Jadran and everyone scattered to take care of necessary errands, arrangements, shopping, or making plans to go in our various directions as the program ends tomorrow (we even left one of our party in Makarska because he was catching a bus to Split, a ferry from there to Italy and a train to Rome). I am personally going to the central train station tomorrow morning to catch the train back to Vienna where I will spend a few days before flying from there to Atlanta through Amsterdam.
The evening was spend by a small but dedicated group of us going out to celebrate the birthday of one of our group members and the successful completion of our journey.
