Split, Croatia

August 17, 2018

Today we hired a private boat to take us around the first stop was this nice town called Trogir and we walked around there about half an hour.

The next stop was this other nice place called Maslinica and we decided to have lunch at Martinis-Marchi Hotel Restaurant called Minutus Vinum where the Blue Lagoon is. Afterward, we went back to split and had a Tuk Tuk Tour (sort of like an electric golf cart) which was fun.

The driver took us around to a few panoramic picture spots and we also drove by a really nice beach called. The last stop on the Tuk Tuk Tour was the old town where we walked around for a bit and then headed back to the ship.

Follow us on our journey the next destination is Dubrovnik, Croatia.

Our Tuk Tuk Tour Guide looked like the UFC fighter McGregor. A car of tourists started yelling his name out when we passed by them.

Iceland

April 26th – May 1st, 2018

Our hotel was Konsulat in Reykjavik. The hotel was newly renovated, and it was lovely. We met our friends Avin & Lindsy who are from Indiana but live in Florida now. They stayed there three years ago for one month, so it was nice being there with them because they knew all the hot spots. The names of the towns and restaurants are very long and complicated, so I will do my best to give as many details in the photos as possible. One thing that you will find in Iceland is that there are no shortages of waterfalls. The weather seems to be dodgy you will have 50/50 chance of rain or shine. The one thing I didn’t like was how cold it was while we were there it was their summer. Our first stop which is a MUST is a visit to the Blue Lagoon. It was a great experience.

Ilha Grande, Brazil

December 11, 2016
Today we took a ride on a schooner boat to the Blue Lagoon which is an isolated beach on the north side of the island. The ride was about an hour long, and we saw lovely views of the lush forest and shoreline. The entire island is protected environmentally, so nature reigns supreme. We had a chance to snorkel which I didn’t participate in, but John did he said it was nice but once you’ve seen the Great Barrier Reef it’s hard to beat.
