'progress'

Ah i am so ridiculously stressed. i have 10 exams left. in the space of 1 week and 2 two days. i'll let you think about that for a few seconds ...


anyway progress on the adventure-of-a-lifetime. well penny hosted a trip meeting on friday which i sadly could not attend (shocking i know) due to work overloads but Anna and Ri joined her instead and that was it. i personally think its a pretty shockingly low turnout but i cant say i'm suprised. They did vaguely establish a route which is good and Penny has this amazing map of croatia that even tells you where you can get boats to and from. Inspite of this amazing map we still havent fully established where exactly we're going because its very difficult to choose.... we still have time though.

I booked another youth hostel in Zagreb
'Ravnice Youth Hostel' which looks pretty good and although it's in the suburbs it only takes 20minutes to get to the city centre by tram and its 15 euros so thats pretty cheap. Its weird we could only find 2 youth hostels in the whole of Zagreb and i read reviews about the other one 'Hostel Zagreb', and i'm glad we aren't going there.

We're only staying in Zagreb for one night, then we're heading towards the coast but not sure to where exactly. We were going to go to the 'Plitvice Lakes':

Plitvice Lakes

its the national park with wolves, bears and wold boar ... and loads of waterfalls. but apparently you cant swim in them so we are considering going to Krka:

Krka National Park


which is also nice and you can swim in them but it's not as spectacular as plitvice and you cant camp there ... so i duno.

Then we're going down to Split and possibly staying there for a night but it'll have to be in another youth hostel (u cant camp in split )and i could only find one and the owner doesnt know whether they'll be availability for all of us. We'd only stay there for a night anyway cos then we're going to Bol. I'll post some pictures of that once we've got camping sorted out. I emailed all the campsites there and one wont take any reservations (which is annoying) and this other one will but it looks really quite basic and shit basically so i'm waiting till this other one emails me back which looks nice....


After Bol we dont really know but we'll probably have to go bk to split and get a train/bus towards Zadar. But i have found this resort called Trogir and there is a campsite near it (but on a tiny island just off the coast that basically just consists of a pine forest and beach.) they should email me with availabilities soon.

So anyway least there is some progress ... as it appears there are still availabilities in campsites, it doesnt really matter that we cant book the majoritiy of them until after my exams (next tuesday).

Anyways better go and do some more maths........ i hATE TRIG IDENTITES ... and drawing graphs....stupid f(x)

love, sabina xxx
