Last nights ferry trip over to Korcula.

We've now visited Croatia and the former Yugoslavia about 8 times and so have covered most of its coastal areas. However on this trip I had wanted to visit Korcula, often described as a mini Dubrovnik. We weren't disappointed, it is a very beautiful town, despite being popular. We arrived about 5:45 and wandered around its quiet streets and alleyways however at around 7:30 it seemed to get quite busy so we sat down for our meal at a restaurant overlooking the sea. Pretty quickly the restaurants became busy with people waiting for tables. There seemed to be quite a few Americans about, perhaps they had come from their Dubrovnik docked Cruise ships to see this picturesque place. It seems strange that after a 15 minute ferry costing just £2 in Kuna' that the price of drinks should double but that's actually the case. A half litre beer costing 18 kuna over at Orebic became a 36 kuna necessity that had to be drunk in this heat. Not to worry still just over £4 and probably cheaper than London and Jersey.

Lots of restaurants line the waterside streets
