| SHIP'S
LOG Day two in Split was perfect, the sun was strong, but the sea breeze
cooled things down. Our students were every where. Many rented
scooters and we would see them buzzing by as they explored the area.
Others rented jet skies, and played on the water all day. We did see
other absorbing the magnificent architecture and historical sights,
and at the end of the day many were seen on the beach taking in the
other sights.
There were some lessons learned, you
must always buy a bus ticket and make sure you have it punched
before you ride. A misunderstanding of this simple rule could have
became ugly as a group of students returned to the ship, but things
worked out in the end.
This is indeed a wonderful port, the
Romans realized it centuries ago. We swam in sheltered salt water
pools where Caesar might have swam. Dined in areas which were
frequented by the ancient Romans and enjoyed the magnificent views
just the way that they did.
Many of our students truly appreciate
the fact that they were in a vibrant city, which is built among the
ruins of such an ancient society. Our short history simply can't
compare to the history of this Region.
We will enjoy Split for one more day
then once again set sail. West bound this time heading towards home.
