Prioritized Daily

After breakfast at our hotel, we drove to Pula to see the colosseum built by the ancient Romans.  A German film company was shooting a movie series for Ze Network staring David Hasselhoff who is the star in Baywatch in the US.  Mirko waited while Ljubica, Debbie, and I toured the colosseum in Pula on the coast of the Istrian peninsula of the Adriatic Sea, and took pictures.  It was the second most important region in the Roman Empire growing olive trees and vineyards producing quality olive oil and wine.  I took a picture of Debbie and Ljubica in the park standing beside a monument to Josip Broz (Tito) 1892-1980.

Debbie and I treated Ljubica to a message for her 70th birthday.  We were not here on her actual birthday but as I tell the grandchildren, every day is your birthday, when Grandma Debbie and I are with you.

6:30 PM - Dinner at the hotel
