Mljet Island

We took the fast (catamaran) ferry this morning to the little island of Mljet (don’t ask how to pronounce it) and are staying at the only hotel – the Odisej (again, don’t ask how to pronounce it). This is our first day with no sun. In fact, it has drizzled on and off. Not enough to stop us intrepid hikers. We did a short, flat hike around a small inland lake, national park. Now the late afternoon to relax, blog and maybe nap.

But a note about the fabulous dinner last night in Korcula. People had everything from shrimp risotto (Lauve) to squid. I had Leskovacka Muckalica, a beef & pepper stew which was delicious. Lauve has already figured out the recipe.

Tomorrow another hike on Mljet and a visit to this island monastery in the middle of the inland lake.
