I woke up feeling significantly worse than on previous days - no doubt feeling an accumulated hangover from the previous week's nocturnal activities. Having spent most of the past week lazing around the beach or cruising around on boats Monty and I decided that we needed to get our lives sorted out so headed into town to do our laundry. This may sounds somewhat mundane but given it had been a long long time since we had worn completely fresh clothes, we were both more than a little excited by the prospect. So, we headed off into town wearing just our shorts and thongs (so we could wash all our stuff), found the laundromat and then went our separate ways to kill the time until we could collect our gear. Whilst Monty caught up on some net time I went and had lunch with the others at a square in town and then for a quick swim at the beach before meeting Monty back at the laundromat at 4. Whilst his clothes were all full, I was told to come back in about 2 hours as my gear was not yet dry - another two shirtless hours for me... After walking to the bus station with a big group of the others who were heading off and saying another round of sad farewells, we headed into an internet cafe where we were able to check up on the cricket score (loving the resurgence of Mitchell Johnson!) and watch the rugby via live streaming. While the result of the game was obviously disappointing, it was good to be able to watch it and I think everyone felt that with our scrum dominance we won at least some sort of moral victory.
We then headed back to our place for a delicious dinner of spag bol ala Nolasco before wandering back into town for our last ngiht in Hvar. Whilst most of us were still feeling under the weather and opted for a relatively quiet night, it was still good fun with plenty of good convo and people watching opportunities. Accordingly, we were both tucked up in bed at a reasonable hour, with backpacks filled with clean clothes and ready to hit the road for a big travel day that was to follow.
Hope all is well back home
