I'm having house guests




My good friend and her husband are traveling from Colorado and will be arriving today in Split. Hubby will be picking them up at the port as they are arriving via ferry from Dubrovnik. I'm beyond ecstatic to see them! Everything on my checklist is marked off: windows cleaned... check, bed linens washed... check, stock the pantry..check, prepare dinner...check! Am I forgetting anything? oh yes and we will be having a glass of wine out in the balcony enjoying the Adriatic sunset! Tomorrow a walk around the city to visit the Diocletian palace. Yes it will be a fun weekend.

  4. I am sure this will not be the last time they visit and many more will come when they see and hear their stories. Perfect weather for guests!

  9. Jelena, I'm crossing my fingers for continued sunny weather. They were greeted with rain in Zagreb, so sunshine is preferred. LOL

  10. check check check, and check, the first fun is that before the great fun.

    check them on a little "post-it" with your details before they leave for the city, so they can check where they are staying in case they forget to check where they lost you in good old Split.
    some breadcrumbs might help also, but the pigeons on the Riva will just love them.

    check it out, and make them love Croatia, the upcoming new EU-member.
    have a fantastic time !!!!!

  17. Pim, I like the breadcrumbs idea, but you are probably right, the pigeons would be right behind them picking up the crumbs! have a wonderful weekend my friend.
