Had a nice sleep-in (until 8 lol), and relaxed with tea until 10. Nobody else was up at the hostel, so it was kinda like my own place for a while. Heaven!

I found a couple of podcasts about Split and walked around the old town. It was almost like a free walking tour? The streets were buzzing with tour groups. Eventually you just follow one to make walking easy lol.

Had some kind of spinach pie for lunch. For 10 kuna (less than 2 dollars) you can still get food here that’s yummy. The green market also has fresh produce for one dollar per pound, which is a great price anywhere. I bought some apricots? that were a little unripe. Still good, not very sweet. 

The museum of ethnography was a way to get some shade and a/c. Along with the usual costumes, jewelry, and decoration stuff, the museum had an exhibit on tobacco and smoking. Kinda strange until you realize that the cigarette industry was important here for a long time. The museum itself is in the 1700 year old palace. That was neat.

I’d had enough crowds. After today’s ice cream cone,  I watched a movie and charged my phone at the hostel.

After 5, the town squares really empty out. It’s easy to walk then, so that’s what I did. Took A long walk, window shopped, and listened to music.

Some silly person let me talk politics with them, so that was a great way to end my day. 

Very pleasant Saturday.
