What Today Looked Like
Children race across the marble paving stones of this square on roller blades. It is the ideal rink—sleek and free of debris, the statue of a Medieval soldier in the center a perfect compass point. I watched them tonight for hours while drinking tea at a cafe across the way with my friend Ola, a fellow travel blogger. While the sun set. While the bell in the tower struck 7:30, then 7:45, then 8:00. While the lights came on in the square and illumiated the stained glass in the cathedral.
I will be writing lots and lots about Croatia. Or maybe it just writes itself.
