Croatia is amazing
Definatley a place I want to come back and visit.
Afetr I sent the lost post, we went for a tour around the old city side of Dubrovonik and it was literally a camera stop every 5 steps. Really cool. We then all jumped on some boats and went island hopping.
This is where I have some bad news.
I pulled a back flip off some wall and landing comfortably on some soft sand. Everyone was like wow and they all said do it again, do it again, we want to get it on camera.
I said - if i get hurt from this I will not be happy. As I landed I went toes first and my heels snapped back into the sand. It hurt for a bit but I walked it off after screaming a rather loud profanity. It was all good until the next day when I had a look at the thing in the morning and noticed it was all black and swollen to twice the size. As you can expect - i was not happy.
I had to go to a Croatian hospital and have a whole bunch of xrays done which took ages - into the early hours of the next morning and cost me $150 for it all. The verdict is that I have basically got a serious sprain and bruised my tendon - which isnt really as bad as it sounds but is still rather uncomfortable when walking. Basically I now take twice as long to get anywhere as anyone else and I truly am NOT HAPPY with my stupid self. I have made a mental note not to do anything stupid ever again.
So bad news I guess but hopefully I will be walking round on it properly in a few days. I know Mum is reading this now going oh no, oh no but dont worry mum. Happy mothers day by the way.
I am in Slovenia now after spending a bit of time in zadar (another Croatian city). Going to Austria tomorrow as I have found out.
Some good news is that I may be going to egypt sooner than expected as they have a good deal going on at the moment which is 15 days with everything included (travel, accomodation etc) and they take you down the Nile and spending 5 days in a resort for roughly $1000 so not a bad deal at all.
Will no doubt be hearing from mum or dad soon but hope everyone else is taking care
