A Real Rest Day!!!

Kate can't believe her luck - finally a real rest day.

The apartment in Zagreb is on the main square and all the action is literally coming past our window.

I have stayed here before with Andy and Alastair and it is probably the best supplied place I have ever stayed. You look for what you want and it is here somewhere.

Zagreb for us is a staging point to Plitvice so we are enjoying a relaxing day. Apart from removing her braids Kate has hardly left her bed (obviously needed a rest). I made the ultimate sacrifice and went into the square to source pastries and check out the food market. Very like the Central Markets but Croatian style.

We have had drummers in traditional clothing march past the window and the flower market with another traditional group of entertainers is just out the front door.

Had a little afternoon nap, went out for a few groceries for breakfast and snacks for tomorrow and before we knew it, it was beer o'clock.

We have really enjoyed our rest day.

No blog tomorrow. We are going on a tour from Zagreb to Split including Plitvice which won't arrive until after 8pm. Expect to be very tired by then.
