Enough of cities... it's time for the beach!

View RTW Trip - Part I & Croatia on jhongny's travel map.

After 10 days (10 days!) in Budapest, we're heading out this morning to the coast of Croatia. Ashok scored a cheap flight from Bratislava to Split, Croatia (finally our flexible schedule gets us something) which is good, because we're splurging big time in Croatia. We decided to book a 7-day boat trip island hopping in Croatia (Hvar, Elifiti Islands, and others I don't remember the name to).

Quick note on Budapest though: After 3 nights on the Botel, modern conveniences and the need for space won over and we moved to a regular hotel on land. The beer is not as cheap as in Czech but we still had our fill. Other than that, we love it here. It's a great city, and we're glad we decided to take our time here. It's beautiful, yet it has a gritty underside so everything is not perfectly pretty like Paris. There are a few bath houses here (more like swimming pools here) so of course we enjoyed those. Unfoturnately, I gotta run, so I will have to give more details and upload pictures next time which will be after our boat trip (we won't have internet access on the boat).

Stay tuned....
