Yes, we made it to our first home-away-from-home. Everything worked like clockwork (with one exception...the stolen wallet episode). Our apartment is really nice and comfortable, and convenient...of course, Novi is a very small town...everyone knows everyone else.
We had dinner at a good Istrian restaurant...262 Kn (kuna, the local currency) =€37=$46. It was a local mixed meat plate for two. Fish is the specialty of the area as Novigrad is a fishing port. We'll be eating lots of sea food in future days.
I am sitting right now in the town square. The town provides free Wi-Fi outdoors. It's a cool evening and my hands are cold. Mom is making phone calls at Duska's office canceling our Visa and Fidelity cards. We are only able to AmEx because Mom's number is different than mine.
In 2010 we traveled to each of these countries (except Thailand), exploring for only a few days in each. We decided to re-visit each ountry in 2011-12 by renting an apartment for a month or more to live as a "local", hopefully share some of our "talents", as well as do some tourist sight-seeing. This is our journal of the eight months from October 2011 to June 2012.
