Zagreb

Hi all,

Well, I am on my own now, no Hansa or Renee to babysit me through passport controls, language difficulties or itinerary plans. I got into Zagreb, the capital of Croatia, a couple of hours ago. My hotel was right across from the train station, so it was easy to get to. Following Rick Steves book, I caught a tram up to the main square and checked out the tourist info spot. That,s how I found this internet place. It was raining a bit an hour ago and so it has cooled off a little, but very humid. Won,t complain though, cause it,s not close to 113.

Kristi, Dad tells me Mika has grown lots?? Does she ever go home to her own pool at all? Matt, I bet it seems cool in Seattle compared to home, eh? Was the garden still alive? The cats were glad to see you, I bet. Is it going to cool off soon? Well, I,ll take a swim in the Adriatic every day starting tomorrow for all of you.

How did Becca and Diana like the Cinque Terre? Hope they enjoyed a swim in the Mediterranean. I think they,re up in Switzerland now, right? Should be cooler up there for them.

So, I,m off for some sightseeing and something to eat here is Zagreb. I take a short flight ( 50 minutes) to Dubrovnik tomorrow afternoon. Hopefully, I can find my Dubrovnik home easily. I,ll write from there in a day or two.
