It was time to keep heading south, and time to get into the Croatian islands (there are 300+ in this country!). We set sail, and headed for Losinj. The first anchorage we picked was quiet, with about 10 houses on shore and only two other boats in the anchorage. We had no internet signal, and had a nice quiet evening on board.

The next day we moved just 5 miles around the bend (we could have walked in 40 minutes) to a different bay to meet up with friends Immie and Pierre as they were heading north.

The water was crystal clear and beautiful for swimming. Pierre picked us up in their tender with their fabulous new super quiet and lightweight electric motor, and we headed ashore for a nice lunch. After some rests and a paddle, Pierre and Immie came back over for sun downers. We drank and talked long into the evening, and made our farewells (hoping to see them later in the season again).
