Island Life

Island Life

At dawn, we sailed to our second last island of our tour, Miljet, for our fifth ride in a row. I feel like I can confidently say that these islands are quite hilly. Nah...I would say really hilly. Really, really hilly. Luckily for us, they are also absolutely...

Staying at a Postcard

Staying at a Postcard

Today's ride is the longest of the week at just over 50kms. We depart Vela Luka at our scheduled 9am departure, then a coffee break somewhere along the way, to finish at Korčula where we'll have lunch back onboard our ship. During our ride there are olive trees, rows...

Summer came back!

Summer came back!

We were quite concerned about the weather considering how awful it was yesterday, but we woke up to clear blue skies and a big beautiful yellow sun. Ah yes! Summer is back. Now we can't wait to get out on our bikes and enjoy the day. Then Martina showed us what we...

Winter in Croatia

Winter in Croatia

Strong winds, cold temperatures and lots of rain in the forecast...winter has come to Croatia early. Ferries have been cancelled and all the ships are seeking shelter in any protected bays that have room. Yay us! We have our boat moored very securely to the dock with...

Time to get our sea legs on and get onboard the Romantica, a 105 foot, 2 masted motor sailor. We will be biking & boating for the next week through the islands off of Croatia to our final destination Dubrovnik. Before we're actually able to check in with the crew...

The Day is Ruined!

The Day is Ruined!

It seems that wherever we travel, the Romans got there first. Croatia is no exception. Those Romans sure knew how to get around. A quick thirty minute bus ride from Split's old town, we find ourselves in Split's older town. The ruins from the Roman Empire, dating back...

Happy International Coffee Day

Happy International Coffee Day

There's only one way to start off International Coffee Day, and that's with a coffee (I'm sure lattes count too). Our Multiday Sport Adventure has come to an end, and just in time as my legs have started to wave the white flag of surrender. We are off to now see Split...

Kayaking – kind of

Kayaking – kind of

Today, September 30, is National Truth and Reconciliation Day back home in Canada. We'd like to take a moment to recognize and honour the Indigenous communities that make up our beautiful country. How do you know you're getting older? Plan a 'vacation' with three...
