Happy in Hvar

Day 3, since I have missed my ferry, or made the executive decision last night not to catch my ferry, I now need a place to stay. Hopefully there is room at the hostel. I ask and the girl working says there is nothing currently available but to wait till the one who runs it wakes up and she might be able to work something out. I have to move all my stuff out and check out, but thankfully I can just leave it there. First order of business is trying to find a room, but I figured I would wait to see if there is space in the same hostel first and if not I could always find a place to stay. We decide we want some eggs for breakfast so we head off to the mini mart, just on our way out she stops me and says there is room and I can sleep on the fold out sofa. Marina agrees to just stay there and allow me to just stay in the same bed. Perfect. So no worries, I have a bed. We head off to the store with James and Niall, and half way there we realize we hadn’t brought our money. Opsies. This is just the start to a forgetful day. What has Croatia done to us!! Lols so we cook up breakfast and head down to find something to do, we were going to see if there was anything adventurous we could get ourselves into. Not much help and we decide we should just relax at the beaches today. Once again we forgot our money so we go back to the room. We need to get cash to pay for our nights stay as well buying ferry tickets so we can leave the next day. After taking care of this business its finally time to hit up the beach. We first go to a beach and its super crowed so we switch locations we find a nook somewhere with semi flat place to lay on the rocks. Marina decides now is her claim to fame and decides to lay topless for like 10 mins, I’ve always thought about it, but still couldn’t bring myself to do it. I am so sleepy but I can’t seem to nap. I go out for a swim for a little while but its hard to get out into the water and I get super nervous about those sea urchins. We lay for some time then I get really faint and decide it is time for food. I am beginning to break out into a heat rash but nothing too serious yet. We go to this burger place hidden away by the grocery store. Marina and I decide to split one and it is amazing. It just melts into your mouth, so delicious. We had grapes from the market for our desert. Quite the feast. Then we head back to the hostel drop some things off and go to a different beach. We lay there for some time and I am able to catch up on my written journal. However my bumps are starting to get really bad. I just hope they don’t start to itch. That would be very unpleasant. Thankfully they don’t. We return to the hostel to get some stuff and try to see the sunset. Its been a back and forth kind of day and we keep forgetting everything. We go to the store pick up a bottle of wine and head off to the castle for sunset. We can’t figure out how to get there, we ask directions and head up. Lots of Lots of stairs. We then turn right and keep walking towards the sun. For some reason I turn around and see the Castle is behind us. Opsies. Story of the day. When we find the sign, we realize it was right at the top of the stairs, silly us. We walk all they way up there, behind a french group of kids making weird animal noises, and can’t find the entrance. Finally we find it and pay to get in. We get lost a few times and can’t find our way to the top. By now the sun has already set and we have just paid 25 kuna for nothing sad day. We decide to head down to get ready for our last night together. We can’t seem to make our way out of the castle what a tricky place. Eventually we make our way out. We get back and I sit and talk to the lady who works at the hostel she really is a doll. I liked her a lot.I finally decide to shower and its a slow start to the evening. I wasn’t really in much of a mood to be crazy though, I just wanted to chill and relax my last night. Marina ends up drinking most of the wine so she is having a good time. We walk to meet the Brazilians like planned and they were gone. Oh no! We head oFf to town to find them, but not so much luck. Marina decides to call it a night around 12:30 so we walk her back. I wasn’t tired yet and I wanted to just go relax by the water. So Niall and I go sit down by the dock. It was really peaceful just to listen to the water and look up at the stars
