Lovely Hvar, with your lovely pebbly beaches and your wonderfully clear water and your lack of roving elderly tourist groups. Hvala!
But it's also time for us to leave Croatia and move onto Istanbul. I can't wait.
An update on books read:
Finished in Dubrovnik: Breakfast of Champions by Kurt Vonnegut
I liked it, and I should probably read it again once I've read his other books. That's the trouble with starting with the last novel that he wrote.
Started in Dubrovnik and finished in Dubrovnik: Sirens of Titan by Kurt Vonnegut
I probably shouldn't have chased Vonnegut with Vonnegut, but Elliott wasn't done with Blade Runner yet, and I didn't feel like reading Pamuk. I didn't like this one very much. There was just no point, which was perhaps the point. But I had no connection with any of the characters, and active loathing for Rumfoord, and the ending just left me with a sense of "That was it?"
Started in Dubrovnik and finished on the sweltering bus to Split: Blade Runner by Philip K. Dick
Fun book. Now I really want to see the movie.
Dinnertime. Muesli and vodka. Yum.
