Bye to Venice

Sunday was moving day as we checked out of our lovely apartment for our fast boat to Porec in Croatia. As the boat didn't leave until after 5.00 pm it was good that they provided storage facilities nearby. The foreboding sky made walking about a gamble, so the plan was a thank-you lunch for Kez and Frank from us and the Graham's.

I finally got a chance to book a restaurant that I had earmarked called San Trovaso nearby our apartment. Tom and Kirsty also came along to make up our usual eight.

We had the best meal so far in Venice as our last one of the trip. Excellent food in big proportions at a very fair prices and great staff. More food in Venice should be like this!

Said our farewells and were joined by Tez and Glen on the trip across the Adriatic. Turned into an eventful trip as storms hit, with driving rain and lightning. At one stage we were becalmed as the motors shuddered to a halt, apparently because of debris being sucked into the motor. Thankfully the crew fixed it quickly and we made Porec on time.

Graham's continued on to Rovinj after we disembarked and made a dash to our hotel right opposite the wharf. Quick change before enjoying a very nice dinner in the hotel.

Had a bit of rocking today, so not rocking needed to get us to sleep!
