Day 16 - Split

Zdravo, Croatia!

Croatian Flag

I took the overnight ferry across the Adriatic from Ancona. But here are a couple more pictures from that Italian town:

Piazza del Plebiscito

Ancona Harbor

On the boat, a couple tables of Croatians were singing ALL NIGHT LONG which means I didn't sleep well at all. But this city is quite nice. There are maze-like streets and Roman ruins (still in use - see photo) and Italianate plazas and Americana restaurants.

Diocletian's Palace

It took me a long time to figure out that "Split" was the name of a city. I looked for Zdravo on the maps with no joy, but a web search revealed that its true meaning is simply "Hello!" :)

Is that a palm tree in Split?

Um... No, it's a chicken.
