Split

Yesterday we wandered all around Split. Our hostel was right outside the palace of Diocletian. The walls were right outside our window (there were other things in that area too... see photo!). The palace is basically a big tourist area, shops are built into every corner. It is strange to walk around an ancient palace and be buying postcards there too. We also found a sarcophagus in the middle of the road and the only scooter Melissa can ever drive again.

After we wandered around, we went to the tourist office to arrange accommodation in Dubrovnik. We decided to ask for accommodation outside the city, because we found if we stayed a little out of the cities we got better rooms at better prices. In Split, we had basic rooms with bunks. Shared bathroom and shower area. But when we were on Hvar we had a whole apartment with 2 bedrooms, kitchen and living room. So, we arranged better accommodation, went to have lunch - at a great restaurant and then drove to Dubrovnik. The drive was really pretty.
