Trogir

Bosnia and Herzegovina is behind us and Croatia is ahead of us. Here we want to take a few days off from traveling and relax at Denis's campsite in Sveti Filip i Jakov. We were there last year and we really liked it. But before we go there, sightseeing is on the agenda. Today we are visiting Trogir. And Trogir turns out to be one of the beautiful coastal towns in Croatia that are found along the coast. We got a fairly cheap parking spot right in the market square. 8 Kuna per hour, which is about 1.10€ currently. Once again, we were captivated by the charm of these old towns and strolled along the narrow streets and alleys. Boutiques, souvenir shops, cafes, restaurants. You can choose the fish you want to eat right at the place. However, the prices have become almost unaffordable. A fish dish costs between 40€ and 70€. Not feasible for us. The prices have reached somewhere between madness and decadence and do not correspond to the actual value of the goods. Besides, you usually have to order the side dishes separately. So we continued towards the harbor. Large yachts, small yachts, motor boats. Everything is there and it always has its special flair to be in such harbors. At the end of the harbor is the Castle of Trogir or what is left of it. It's just the wall surrounding it. Inside is an empty courtyard. Attached directly to it and surely a great experience in the evening, there is a beach bar with a small stage.

In between, we had an ice cream sundae and a coffee and then we went back to the car. On the way, we made a quick stop at the bakery. Here, like almost everywhere in the Balkans, they have bread and rolls made from white dough. Essentially, everything tastes the same. It's just rolled sometimes, oblong sometimes, round sometimes, braided like a braid sometimes, and occasionally filled with very sweet creams. So once again, we had the choice between white bread and white bread.

Before we started looking for a place to stay overnight, we found a lovely little Konoba outside the city center. And behold, they had the same dishes as in the old town at half the price and it was very delicious as well.

At first, finding a parking spot was a bit difficult. We had found a spot in the fishing port, including a sunken cargo ship, but we were told that the police often check that area. And we didn't want to risk a fine. So we continued and after a few detours, we found a very nice, quiet, and deserted parking lot next to the cemetery.
