Jo and I's Holiday in Croatia

 Lots of steps on arrival to Dubrovnik which is not what you want when you have recently run a Marathon
We were planning on swimming but the sea was a bit rough

Jo in one of the turrets on the walls of the old town in Dubrovnik

The weather on our first three days was not great

A view of part of the national park in Mljet

Jo listening to the Sea Organ in Zadar, the sea organ  is a natural musical instrument, seventy meters long with thirty-five organ pipes built under the concrete. The musical pipes are located so that the sea water and wind movements produce musical sounds that are heard by passers by.

A video of the sound the Sea organ made

This is a picture of the Sun salutation at night in Zadar, the The Sun Salutation, located near the Sea Organ, uses the sun's energy to create a light show that displays from evening till morning. Both the Sea Organ and the Sun Salutation were created by the same architect, and the Sun Salutation uses the rhythm of the waves to produce its colorful series of light pulses. 

Jo and I on the  Sun Salutation

A video of our penultimate night in Croatia which we spent in Split listening to music in the old town.   

Jo and I had a great time in Croatia so much so that I have decided to change my marathon for letter Z to Zagreb.
