Where we're staying: Hvar Island, August 9-10

Hvar Island has a long and storied history and is now known as one of the most popular of the islands in the Adriatic. It is also the longest of the islands, measuring 68 km. The town of Hvar also has its own charm.

While on the island, we'll be staying at the Green Lizard Hostel.

Here are some other fun Web sites that might give you a sneak peek at what Hvar is all about:
