Day 25– September 26, 2006 – Cloudy skies and a little rain...
Since it appeared the chances of rain today were pretty good we decided not to go over to Lokrum Island today. It was cloudy most of the day and the sun was trying it’s hardest to peak through the clouds, but the rain won out around 3pm. Fortunately after about an hour of rain we did get a little sun in the late afternoon.
Today was definitely a “lazy day”. We had breakfast at our favorite café on the Stradun and sat there until about 10am. We walked around the town a bit more and checked at Mea Culpa. It’s the pizza place I had heard rave reviews about so we decided we would give a try tomorrow night. We also checked out the Orham Restaurant again and decided to have our “splurge dinner” here tonight. Then we walked up the Hotel Excelsior to check it out since I had heard rave reviews about this place too.
After all this walking around I really wanted a cold drink, so we stopped at the Grads Kavana Café and each had an iced coffee. It was more like a Starbucks frappuccino with ice cream, it wasn’t too bad.
At about 2pm-ish CL and I parted ways for a little while, she wanted to check out the casino at the Hotel Excelsior and I’m not much into gambling so I just strolled around and went back to the sobe to relax, it was a kind of cloudy, slow moving day.
Around 6pm we headed off to the Orham Restaurant, since we were both hungry. We ordered the fish platter for 2 and it came with 2 tuna steaks, a whole (small-ish) trout, 2 large grilled squids and a bunch of mussels and mangold, The best part of the dish was the grilled squid…another pattern forming here…we LOVE grilled squid! But this grilled squid still was not as good as the grilled squid at Lokando. We did not have dessert but we each had a drink and the bill came to 300 Kuna, a little bit less then our awesome meal in Hvar. We walked back to our sobe and called it another early night.
