Hvar Fortress

The fortress above Hvar town dates back to 1000 BC, but the current structure was actually rebuilt about eight hundred years ago. The fortress itself is well maintained, but what is really special is the view.

You can see the town below and the many boats coming in and out of the harbour.

You can also see the string of islands just off the main island. We could see the area where we went swimming yesterday.

We came back to the apartment for lunch and spent a bit of time lounging around reading our books, checking e-mails, and just taking it easy.

We went back into town later in the afternoon. We finished our school work this week so we wanted to have a party to celebrate. We got all sorts of junk food and special treats. We did a bit of shopping and came back with some new clothes, as well as our junk food. On the way home we got caught in a downpour. We were all soaked by the time we got back, but that was kind of fun too.

After drying off, we watched a movie, ate burritos, followed by chips, chocolate, and gummies. Too bad we didn't have friends around to invite over, but we managed to have fun with our own little celebration.
