3rd meeting- Croatia. The fifth day.

On the fifth and last day of our meeting in Croatia, we went for a boat ride along the small Glibuša river for a photo shoot. We hoped to take pictures of many animals. However, we only saw some wild ducks and a few hens in their yard. After the long boat ride, we got off of our boats near the museum built on the archeological site of the ancient city of Narona. It was founded by the Greeks and ruled by the Romans for centuries. Nowadays, there is a village where the remains of a big part of Narona are believed to be, so they can't dig it up. After the museum tour, we received our certificates and began our journey home. Written by Diandra

On the fourth day, we visited the island of Korčula. The day started with a bus ride that lasted a few hours, continued by a short boat ride to the port next to the old town of Korčula. We received a tour around the old town. The guide thoroughly explained the history of Korčula (both the town and the island) and in the end, she taught us how to play an old board game. We played it with gummy bears and chocolates, the chocolate team won. We had lunch at a restaurant in the mall located outside the old town of Korčula. During the few hours of free time, one of us went swimming in the cold water. We were back in Metković at about 7 o'clock. Written by Diandra Sisestama Diandra

Today we visited the port of Ploče, which is a private port. It was a short bus ride from Metković. After listening to a presentation about the port and its future plans to become more green, we had a short bus tour around the port. We enjoyed brunch in the port's restaurant, where we ate delicious pizza. After that we had free time to walk around the town of Ploče. The bus drove us back to Metković for a short break, after which we cleaned nature from the trash. That was the end of our mandatory activies.
