The chameleon at our hostel

Onward

We had a great day in split yesterday and we are headed to hvar this morning via boat. I successfully downsized my bag. I'm now traveling with a daypack, a computer bag, and a purse! FTW!

Split

Safely arrived to our hostel in split!

Zagreb

We successfully made it to Croatia!  We're spending the day in Zagreb, and we have a flight to Split tonight.  I'm certainly looking forward to a day (tomorrow) that doesn't involve travel.  We're sitting at an outdoor cafe in Zagreb right now, trying to beat the heat. We will be staying in Split for two nights, and then we're heading to Hvar for 3 nights.  I can't wait to be back near the water!

Interlaken2

Well, interlaken was a total bust.  The storm literally shut everything down.  They weren't running anything (canyoning, paragliding, rafting, etc) today at all because there was too much rain and lightening.  So rather than sitting around at our hostel (that occasionally had power - it cut out during the 2nd half of the Eurocup final!) and dying of boredom, we decided to get the hell out of dodge early.  We're on an overnight train tonight to Zagreb, Croatia. We get there in the morning, and will spend the day exploring before catching a flight in the evening to Split. We're pretty excited to get out of the rain and into the sun.  We're both pretty disappointed that the trip to interlaken was an (expensive) waste, but oh well!  We just picked up a travel book on Croatia and we're chilling in a Starbucks in Zurich before our train leaves in a few hours.

Interlaken

We safely made it to Interlaken!  Unfortunately, it is storm of the century in Switzerland right now.  It is windy, cold, raining sideways, and there is occasional lightening.  No sign of improvement for the days that we are here. Oh, and did I mention that we're staying in tent/yurts?!  We're in for an adventure!

Zurich

Rachel and I safely made it to Zurich! I was able to get on an
earlier flight and got there 8 hours earlier to meet her! So far we
are both pretty jet lagged, but hoping for a good night's sleep!
