Several cruise ships and other large ferries were docked in the port at Split waiting to go somewhere.  The Dalmatian Coast has many islands and lots of ships running here and there.

This was once a heavily protected military base.  Now it is a hidden paradise that a few lucky tourists venture to every year.

Kristen and I found ourselves in the old town of Split.  It is a very interesting city built inside and around an old palace.
