Day 15: Hvar Town & Stari Grad

Today was another day in paradise.  I'm loving this small ship cruising in the Adriatic.  Today we were on two sides of Hvar island.  In the morning we were in Hvar Town.  It is pretty upscale and attracts a lot of celebrities.





I've been a bit obsessed with the Venetian Lions--This part of Croatia was under Venetian rule for a long time, so there are signs of Venice everywhere. 





This is in front of a Benedictine convent where the nuns makes lace out of the Agave Cactus.


In the afternoon we went to Stari Grad--on the other side of Havar.  It's a much more laid back town.






We met some really great folks on our boat.



We ended the evening with Klapa singing.  It's male a cappella traditional Croatian music.  These guys were a little less traditional because they had guitars.
