August 9: Your cruise starts here Trogir, Croatia

We swim then pack for our trip. In normal traffic the drive from Omis to Trogir is an hour. It takes us closer to three as we navigate holiday maker traffic.
We are pretty ecxited by now an  arrive to the port right on time. Our packing is a little haphazard and we forget a few things... Oh well, it is just so exciting to see our wonderful ship. It was completely rebuilt in 2011 and is very plush... We didn't actually realize it is four to five star. The captain will sell it for 200 thousand euro if anyone is interested.
Our room is below deck and there are another set of rooms on the first floor along with a swimming platform. The next floor has the kitchen, crew rooms, captains driving seat, deck chair area and indoor and outdoor eating salons. The very top floor has a large flat deck for sunbathing and play. All in all it is sensational.
We meet the other clients. Some from England, Switzerland, Holland, Germany and others from Belgium.
The first day takes us to Bol on the island of Brac. We stop for a swim on the way. It is brilliant seeing the girls doing so well. A week ago Frankie would not let go the side of the pool and now with lifejacket, mask and snorkel she is even attempting freestyle alone.
