Up and off to get in line for the 08:30 Krk ferry. Slightly longer trip by  1km than the last ferry. One of the crew had a chat to John about the rig. Had thought to take another ferry form Krk down south to Rab island and then another to Pag then a drive to Split. However the Rab island ferry only ran morning and evening and we didn’t want to wait.
 

We drove down south to Baska had a coffee in a very smoky cafe and strolled the empty waterfront. Quiet cold. Back to EC and we saw a french camper with a couple and a dog.


We drove up a windy narrow road to the church on top of the hill. Amazing how they pack the graves in, must be 4 or 5 deep by now. Some of the graves had 3 names on them. But what a view they have!!!
Back up north towards the bridge that has the second longest concrete span in the world.

Had lunch just south of the bridge looking at it. Pretty impressive.
There was this painting and an old  poem here. We understand the "lady" is mother Croatia and the poem about "her".

We crossed the bridge and wended our way up hill and onto a very narrow track. One lane but sealed.

A lovely early camp (1400hr) over looking Krk Island and the bridge. A nice place for new years eve.
Were woken at midnight when someone close by let of some fire works, we had a great view form our bed's window. The islands were also covered in flashes of light but too far away to see properly.
