Plans change

Some days don't go to plan. Today it was Gail's turn to be sick, as an earache became worst and she felt giddy as we walked through the old town after I had spent part of the morning organising our car for a little drive into Istria.

While she laid down, I found a doctor and made an appointment. A long consultation followed; an ear infection diagnosed and rest recommended. Days car hire wasted, but more importantly she has antibiotics and will rest and be good to go on board the boat later on the trip.

The change allowed more of a look at the town and a climb to the top of the World Heritage early Christian Basillica for great views over the area. At least I got plenty of exercise walking back and forth during the day.
