15 minutes of fame!?! How cool is that.
This morning I was up early and on the 0830 am ferry headed for Hvar. Its about 2.5 hour ride on the car ferry about an hour by catamaran. Other than Plitsvice Lakes this is the most beautiful place yet. I was on the beach by 130pm, nice cool breeze, and the bluest water. The beaches here are nothing like we are accustomed to. They all tend to be very rocky. When you walk on the stones here it sounds like broken glass. I think i will stay here for several days!
Just a few minutes ago i heard "there is Chuck", girls from Split are here, so we are going to meet for pizza later. I better go get ready!!!!!!!!!
Later,
Chuck
PS: This is the only internet cafe in town and they do not allow uploads so it will be a few days before i can post pics.

Observer Article
I guess you think your Rick Steves now! (HaHa)
That is pretty cool. I always figured you would make the front page of the paper, but I didn't think it would like this.
You're a star!
Hey, you looked great in the paper today. We even used your photo! Thanks again for sharing your trip with all us buddies, and now with all of Charlotte. You da man!

Can I have your autograph
Wow, Chuck! You made the tabloids! That was a great write-up. Isn't it a great feeling to know that so many people are thinking about you and wishing you well - and wishing that we were there too??!! Take good care and keep soaking up all that beauty.
Love,
Barbara
