If you touch this guys' toe, you will have the good fortune of returning one day to Split. And it worked! Exactly 7 days later. Well, we were on a return sailing trip.

CatwalkQueen returns!!!
CatwalkQueen stopped posting abruptly in July because of some legal and financial issues. Perhaps not a bad thing for me at the time, as checking these kinds of sites made me miss London so much when I was in Oz.
But it is one of my favourite sites to visit for a little fashion industry insider news, peppered with some high street tip-offs, which are really helpful when I am in London, with money to spend...ie not at the moment. Boohoo for me. Anyway, check it out at http://www.catwalkqueen.tv

Bar-hopping across the Adriatic
In case you desperately needed a cocktail but also had a bag of dirty laundry? Zagreb.
This bar (see the little cluster of umbrellas) on the outside of the ancient Roman walls of Dubrovnik was reached through an inconspicuos hole in the wall. No signs. No name. So cool.
Sometimes beer drinking was so urgent one couldn't even wait to get to the bar and had to start drinking while sitting on the roof of the ferry!
My personal favourite, the Half-Tower bar in Korcula, at the top of an ancient stone tower.
People go up via this ladder. Drinks go up via a pulley system on the outside of the tower.
And the view of the sunset was pretty amazing too!

Having holiday withdrawals...
The promenade at Split. Hmm, I look kind of pregnant in this picture. Yeah, not.
Cafe culture inside Diocletian's Palace, Split
Dubrovnik, Croatia's 'Jewel'. Basically our week-long sailing trip was filled with scenery like this!
The Colosseum. Massive. Awesome.
After seeing the Sistine Chapel, you have to walk for about half an hour just to get out. This staircase was a welcome sight! Not that the Vatican wasn't great, just never-ending.
