Hi All,
On Thursday, my mom's first cousin Vlado and his wife Dusica swung by Postira to pick up Matt, Kristina and I up to spend a day with them in another village on Brac where they have a house, a place called Sutivan. Sutivan is another beautiful little Croatian island town, very similar to Postira in many ways. We had a great time with them, and here are the pics to prove it! Thanks again Dusica and Vlado!
The first thing we did, of course, was hit up the beach! We found a beautiful little cove in Sutivan without too many people, and posted up. The shore, as is typical on Brac, was small pebbles, but about 25 feet from the shore in the water, the ground changed to sand, which was awesome combination because you could enjoy the sand without getting too dirty when it was time to get out of the water. We spent about five or so hours here, which is not too bad for Professional Chillers like us, just lounging around, swimming, and enjoying the warm Mediterranean sun. Here, in my best attempt at "art," you can see Kristina relaxing in the foreground, and Matt halfway in the water in the background. Not too shabby, huh?

In the afternoon, Vlado picked us up from the beach and brought us back to their beautiful little home. He then set to work, grilling a masterpiece of a meal for us the old Croatian way. No charcoal briquettes here, he used real wood! You can't see it in the picture, but his apron said "Master of the Grill." Although, I guess it doesn't really matter, since most of you probably couldn't understand it even if you could see it since it was in Croatian!
The five of us after another extremely appetizing, stomach-stretching meal! Vlado said we couldn't leave the table until everything was gone, and I'm proud to say that I was the one who saved us and allowed us to leave! :) Also, happy belated birthday to Dusica, who was ironically born on the same day as Kristina, August 14!
After the meal, we tried to burn off some calories by walking through the town center of Sutivan at dusk, which proved to be quite a beautiful sight! A local dance studio was giving a performance, so needless to say Kristina was thrilled, and we all enjoyed watching them do Thriller. Here's Kristina and Matt doing one of their favorite things in Croatia, and Vlado joining in: Eating Sladoled! So much for burning off some calories!
We had a great time in Sutivan with such wonderful people, and we are so happy that we got to go there during our short time in Croatia. Just another great place we'll have to visit again sometime soon! :)
Hope all is well at home!
Love,
Ry
