19 June 2012: We watched Croatia lose in the last minutes to Spain in the European Football League last night in the camp site bar, sipping tequila sunrise, surrounded by lapping water. What a life. Sometimes we think we have died and gone to heaven, we are enjoying this journey so much. The Croatian coast has been a joy to drive along and we are continually surprised by its natural beauty. Today we drove north, stopping along the way to capture this picture of Primosten: Then on to the town of Sibenik which had another interesting old quarter to explore, including a castle high up above the town from where we took this photo: The heat wave continued and we heard of locals being overcome by the heat and ending up in hospital! We headed for the sea and some more snorkelling from our position next to the water on the island of Otok Murter for a couple of days with plenty of shade and a cooling sea breeze. Braveheart had lots of other T4 and T5 friends to hang out with, the different conversions are very interesting, especially how mozzie screens are fitted, something we hanker after now. One T5 carried a super colour co-ordinated Peugeot scooter on a neat rack. Unfortunately wi-fi is getting harder to obtain from the van and free of charge as we travel north so we walked into the nearby town to have a couple of coffees at €2 and use the bar’s free network. Here’s Paul hard at work just outside the van:
