Zadar - Croatia

In Zadar we went to see the sea organ. It's lots of pipes in the sea wall and the sound is made by the waves pushing the air up through pipes. It sounded really cool.

Split - Croatia

In Split we visited Diocletian's palace. Diocletian was the roman emperor in 204-305AD and he built the palace. We also visited the Basilica of Saint Lucia. There was a small statue with messages underneath. We found some really funny ones. One said Dear Saint Lucia, Dillon wants abs, then some other stuff, and another said Dear Saint Lucia, please can we have a nice house in Hawaii with 2 kids. Thanks in advance. There was an underground market that we went to. We also saw some traditional Dalmatian men singers. There was a headless sphinx that was imported from Egypt.

Dubrovnik - Croatia

Dubrovnik we walked around the walls of the old town. They were built between the 13th and 16th centuries and are 2km long and up to 25m high. they have 16 towers; two are round and 14 are square. We had a great view of the old town and saw 2 tortoises and heaps of cats and kittens. After coming down we walked the main street. It's made of marble! we tried to go to a war photo exhibition but it was closed. In 1991 the Yugoslavian army shelled Dubrovnik because the Serbs (from Serbia) didn't want Dubrovnik to be part of Croatia. The battle lasted for 7 months and 114 people were killed. There was some evidence of shelling in some nearby abandoned hotels.

We are now in Greece having been on a ferry from Dubrovnik to Bari in Italy, then from Bari to Greece. We are by a beach  and there is a massively huge sand dune that we ran down. Here are the answers to all of your questions.

My favourite food I have had is probably ice-cream or pizza in Italy.

No it wasn’t scary with the pigeon on my head. It happened several times. He just flew up there.

The glass in the Sagrada Familia only let light through and you couldn’t see through it.

We are in Greece and are staying here for a couple of weeks.

I liked a small blue duck.

Venice wasn’t that expensive.

I’m well thanks.

Next time we go to France we are going to Paris.

We were going to the rugby but we couldn’t get there and it was too complicated.

My favourite place is Europe! I can’t decide.

I am still writing and are just about to send some stuff to Toitoi (or Vox)

I don't understand Lucy's market question.

Here are some photos of our van (called the Happy Heffalump)
