Last night was good. We checked out a new place that served cocktails on the patio with a DJ playing trendy music, and even cool ambient lighting. Very cool. We noticed a lot more English speaking people showing up on the weekend so far. Though there are only 2 channels on the TV with English. It made CSI very hard to watch in German but we figured the story out. Then we slept...
This morning was yet more rain and clouds so we stayed around the apartment till 1:30 or so. We went out to town checked the BLOG and then ate some pizza and pasta for lunch. This day was feeling tired but we decided to go hike up and check out the fortress on the top of the hill.
There were wedding pictures being taken up there. So we checked out the prison in the basement of the fortress first. (wedding pictures were NOT being taken in there for some reason... hmmm, I wonder why...) James scared Dan going down by hiding around the corner. It was funny. The view was great but it would've been better if it was sunny out. Either way it was good cause the rain held off for us. We came back to town and had cappuccinos with out James cause he went back after the fortress for nap time.
Now we are at the apartment relaxing for now. That's the news for now. Tune in next time when James wakes up.

Bahhhhhh.....clouds and rain. The forecast for Hvar called for 50% chance of rain today, 40% tomorrow, 20% the next day, and 80% the day after that. At least that what it said a couple of hours ago at 2 PM, Saturday.
You seem to be finding nice places to go. I've been looking at other blogs on Croatia and Hvar.
Stay away from weddings!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
-RB-
what's the site address? I just have the email address. I would like to see it.
thanks cp
Better to be stuck in the rain in Hvar, than to be stuck in the rain in Willimantic. Glad you're enjoying it there. Apparently, I would starve. =)

Dan, you look like sampson with out the hair!!
I think the building is safe!
Jon, I have a mission for you! If you dare!
I want you to sneak into the vine cellar and post a picture of yourself like this one!

I dare you!

To my wife who is all the way downstairs on another computer... also caught by the clutches of this blog...
I love you!
Yes jon we want to see you in the wine cellar swishing the wine, ha he ha he!
Jon
I better not catch you pilfering wine in my esteemed wine cellar. My wine cellar is armed with all manner of alarms and weaponry.
Watch It!

Your Gracious Host
jon has a nice flat top in that picture of the four of you sitting(don't say that word like sean conrey)on the wall. (i dont know how to spell conrey) pip pip
Can he come out of the corner now??? :) Chris is actually out sick from work tonight (I'm working his shift for him), otherwise he'd probably be posting at this very moment.
Ma Keel collects sand too???
Is it just me or does it seem like you are eating pizza alot? (When you're not eating an intact fish, of course. We went to a restaurant in Hartford called La Casona and Chris ordered a whole fish and then bit the head off!!! Can you believe that? You probably can. :) Anyway, back to the subject at hand... Where are you finding pizza at? Is it simply just a global favorite? Is it made the same way as it is here? Probably not. Also, when you had Chinese food a few countries back, were the cooks actually Chinese or were they locals?(Kind of like when we went to that Sushi restaurant in Sedona and we, at least I, didn't see any Japanese staff). Jon knows what I'm talking about. :) Or maybe around here, we're just fortunate to have diversity and therefore somewhat authentic cusine.
Sorry, not Chinese. It was the Mexican food that I was curious about.
So far that is 3 votes for Chris to come back!
Who else is with us? Autum is he showing signs of distress?
Do you make frequent visual checks on him? Has begun telling you what to write in your entries yet?
Come on everyone vote for Chris to come back! It can be as easy as... typing...
"pro chris" or "comeback chris"
Let's give Chris access to a keyboard! Quick! Before he is changed forever more!
The protical son has returned.I felt like i was disfellowedship and now reinstated.Ireally missed looking at the blog.Hvar looks nice but it sounds like the beaches are not so sandy, is it disappointing?glad to see that the car didn't fall off the ferry and you guys are still safe.
When you are in sorrento have some lemoncello on me (send me the bill).James I turned in your time at your request 37 hours and 234 mags the elders will sure be impressed.
Has Dan already started planning his next flights of fancy while on this trip (northwest terriotory and beyond)
Miss you guys so happy you are sharing your trip with us and can't wait to hear the untold story of the trip.
type you soon
Just woundering how is James doing on the trip.We don't hear much of him.I was just woundering if he could possibly write the next blog, so we can see his perspective on the trip.Does anyone else agree with me?
type you soon
welcome back prodigal son!
Yes James speak up! Tell us some juicy tid bits about the rest of the boys. Chris and I will take up a collection to take you out to Burger King when you return!!!
yes, I would like to hear from James...maybe when he gets up from his nap? very impressive...37 hours and 234 mags. :)
So today is sunday wich means tomorrow is Monday. Monday is when you take a ride on the death trap also known as a "European Ferry". I hope you all will exercise extreme caution...
sorry one more thing I was wondering if you guys were able to place any of the special tracts inviting them to the district convention.It sounds like your landlord miight be interested
Hey, it's Waterworld here! We've gotten about 5 inches since Thursday. Blub, blub, blub. My skin is white and wrinkled and beginning to fall off. Hellllllllllllllllllllllp.
Mom I shaved! Are you proud of me?
yes, i have had begun planning the next vacation. also, i think i have figured out my next career! (or i thought i had. . .) never mind. it doesn't matter.
Just wanted to drop a line and say hello. Sounds like your trip is amazing! 3 weeks in Europe! Not everyone gets to do that. James the younger misses James - driving around all day in the Big Truck. - I know I didn't comment on this before but that slide thing Dan was on looked like alot of fun - it reminded me of when Jon and I sledded down the mountain on our snowboards =)
By the way my vote was for Chris to come back but I see I'm a little late and he is back already =)
To whoever came up with the blog idea - Its amazing I love it and it has now consumed much of my time =)
