Wednesday, May 31st, Mostar, Bosnia Herzegovina

Greetings!

Hot!  We're really happy to be on the coast today, and spending most of the day on the water.  It hit 36 degrees Celsius, and tomorrow starts the official summer season here.

Boats are essential here.  Just as the Venetians' use of them led to their power from the 15th to the 19th century, everyone around us is moving throughout their territory on boats.  Dave, one of our travelers, is much more of an expert than the rest of us, and is helping us gain our sailing knowledge.  And we have some gorgeous yachts to view everywhere we go.

We even ran into a reality show filming at our hotel, and the contestants had to use paddleboards and ride a banana boat.  But somebody's going to get kicked off our island tonight.
