Milna




September 7th the forecast was for gusts up to 45kts but the sun was shining and the sea was blue and there was very little left to do in Kastela so we bit the bullet and set off. The barometer fell 2 points and fluffy white cumulus clouds were spottd sitting on the hills above Split. The wind was behind us and the speeds that Jelena reached were up to 8kts in the big gusts. She had a double reefed main and half a heady . It was disconcerting for the helmsman CPT Bryan as the GPS was down stairs and he was compelled to obey the orders of the 2 gun navigators Sue and Jen or fly blind. By now he was regretting not purchasing the charts for the portable GPS. With impecable accuracy Sue and Jen guided Jelena in to th harbour at Milna and it was so gorgeous we are staying the night after a long lunch. Bryan had his chest examined by his personal physician and immediately improved . In the arvo we caught the bus to Bobovisce around the next cove and walked back seeing some disturbing road kill...a tiny snake. Bobovisce was a tiny village with a beach and some holiday appartments.
