Today we decided to have a "down day" to relax and hang out at the villa. We were up late last night playing cards as the winds were blowing strong outside, and Ben has been under the weather, so it was a good day to have nothing on our agenda.
I made breakfast for the gang although it was pretty late morning before everyone was up and going.
Ben and I did go out for an afternoon walk to explore a little more of the neighborhood around us. I found an old church that was open, so I went in and took a few pictures. There were some beautiful pieces of stained glass in the sanctuary. I also took some pictures of interesting buildings along the way. I really like the architecture and features of the many villas and other buildings.
For dinner I made chicken and penne pasta in a sauce I created from melted butter, olive oil, and cream cheese with grated gouda cheese on top. Turned out pretty good since I was winging it all the way.
The evening was more family time playing cards and sampling the various wines and beers of Croatia. Tomorrow we head to the west coast of the Istrian peninsula to explore some more medieval coastal towns.
