Dugi Rat, Croatia: 27 August 2016
Day 58

We started the day by Watching game highlights from the Green Bay - San Fransisco pre season face off.  Justin is trying to keep up with packer news and the political scene while I read my book and keep my head in the sand.

We had an early-ish start to go find a sail boat. We drove to Omis walked around the tourist section of town. Justin bought a pair of swimming goggles and we looked at some art work.  We were very tempted to buy an enhanced photo of a water colored blue fish.  Justin and I talked to the artist for a while, but finally settle at no.

While we were walking along the river we passed a local home with a small, well tended garden.  It that tiny plot we saw pomegranate, fig, olive and citrus trees as well as tomatoes, brussel sprouts, grapes, cabbage and dill.  What a cornucopia!    We have pomegranates and olives growing in our backyard at our AirBnB but they look rather sad and neglected. 


We stopped for lunch at our favorite spot, Most Caffe Grille.  It is a little dive along the road headed south.  They don't have a beach view but great fish! Dorado is the local fish of choice this time of the year.

The tourist population is significantly decreased from when we first arrived just 12 days ago.  Pisak and Mimice were among the communities we visited just south of Omis for our next visit.  We are looking for a beach removed from the road with a laid back feel.  Poluk is off of the road but doesn't really give you good beach access.
Drove down into one part of Mimice that was a dead end and then another that seemed ok so we stopped for dinner where Gemma met two Yorkies on the beach.  We still need to get down to Medici. 

 We had an early evening ... Why am I so tired today?
