Sunny Bol

Brac Island is famous for its limestone, which was used to help build both the Vatican and the White House.  What draws incredible numbers of tourists to the island every year, however, is its wonderful weather and gorgeous sea.



We didn't do much site-seeing here and, when we weren't working, we did what most tourists do:  spent time at the beach, took tennis lessons with our fabulous instructor Oliver, kayaked in the clearest and warmest aqua sea, wandered along the wonderfully shaded promenade and hiked up and down the hill each day to our hotel (with one additional trek up the mountain to complete our ALS Challenge).

The weather was splendid for most of the visit, save a pesky evening storm that blew out the Internet and stole many of our clothes drying on the balcony and threw them all over the parking lot.  Lucky for us, the relaxed culture here didn't seem to mind the pair of underwear hiding in the hotel entrance way that we somehow only found two days later!
