Good morning good morning.
Good morning guys.
Today we are heading on a day trip.
How exciting.
Yes.
So we've been based in Pula for a little while.
Yep.
And today we are going to Rovinj (Rovigno).
It is only like 30 or 40 minutes away by bus.
Yeah.
So it is going to make for an awesome day trip.
We've basically scheduled the whole day in Rovinj.
We are leaving in the morning and we're probably going to come back after sunset.
Yeah, so we're just walking over to the bus terminal right now.
Yep.
We'll get our tickets and we'll be on our way.
Okay so we are here at the station waiting for our bus.
We just got our tickets and it was 36 Kuna per person which is about 5 US dollars and
60 cents.
That is only one way so not so bad.
It is low season so the buses aren't quite as frequently as they would be during the
summer months but yeah we should be on our way soon.
Okay, so we are here.
Rovinj (Rovigno).
Yeah.
So we've arrived guys and it should come as no surprise that we're hungry so that is our
first priority.
I think we're going to have kind of like a breakfast.
We're going to try and find a cafe.
Yeah, I skipped breakfast.
There was no time for breakfast.
Yeah, we did leave pretty early.
So I'm probably going to find myself a cappuccino.
Oh, and we're just going to chill for a bit.
The weather is a little iffy at the moment.
We've got some white skies.
Tada.
Yeah, we've got some white skies but I do see it breaking a bit off in the clouds so
hopefully we'll kill a bit of time and by the time we're finished breakfast it should
be nice for filming.
So here we are walking through the old town.
We've got some beautiful colors, wooden shutters and it actually reminds me a lot of when we
visited Bergamo in Italy.
Just kind of has that vibe.
Except it is by the sea and we can smell the sea breeze.
Alright guys so we finally found a place where to eat and to most importantly warm up.
We walked into the it is called the Hotel Adriatic and they have a little cafe like
right out front.
Um, so we got some cake, some croissant, cappuccinos.
They didn't really have a breakfast menu.
I was hoping for poached eggs or something a little bit hearty but coffee and cake that
is what it is going to be.
After eating breakfast, we decided to do a little bit of exploring along the waterfront.
We walked the full length of the marina stopping to take photos of the brightly painted buildings
with matching window shutters, plus rows and rows of boats.
Then once we reached the end, we were treated to these postcard-perfect shots of Rovinj
from a distance.
A fun fact about Rovinj: though it's now connected to the mainland, this once used
to be an island.
It was connected in 1763 as part of a land reclamation project under the Venetian Empire,
which also explains why certain parts of the city may remind you of Venice.
So basically we've just been continuing our wandering.
We've kind of stuck to the perimeter of the waterfront.
And it has been really cool.
Like we're not visiting on a weekend so it has been really quiet.
Yeah.
And there has been certain sections like when we go down little alleys.
They are empty.
We kind of have it to ourselves which is awesome.
So favorite thing about Rovinj (Rovigno) so far I would say these tiny little narrow little
alleys.
And it is kind of cool because a lot of the buildings are four or five stories high.
So you just feel like yeah I don't know like you are in a maze almost.
Yeah, you feel like you're in a maze and you have to constantly be looking up to see what
is going on because like laundry it is really cool.
Or cool shutters.
I have this weird obsession with laundry and I'm just going around and filming everyone's
laundry.
Creepster.
Yeah, I'm being a little creepy to be honest.
After wandering around for a few hours, it was finally time for lunch, so we returned
to the waterfront looking for a seaside restaurant.
So we finally settled on a place for lunch.
We are eating at Stella di Mare right on the water.
It is beautiful.
We've already ordered glasses of red wine as you do.
And yeah, we're having some dishes with seafood so it should be really nice.
Also, there are a whole bunch of cats hanging around here.
I think they are like waiting for some fish or shrimps to like fall off the table.
They sure are.
So we may feed them a little bit.
They are very opportunistic cats but they are still cute.
Audrey had the shrimp risotto, I had shrimp pizza, and yes, we both shared with the cats,
who had learned to swat if you approached empty-handed.
It wants fish not pets.
It is like no.
No!
Give me the food.
Give me the food.
I don't want the pets.
Ha.
Alright.
Time for a little shopping.
Still digesting lunch but yeah oh man we're kind of like pradeling along.
Pradeling along.
Anyways, we're visiting the main open market here and the main thing you can buy at this
market is truffles.
Truffles.
There is all kinds of different truffle products.
Yeah, I mean you can find a little bit of produce.
Yep.
But the main thing is like rows.
That is the main thing.
Rows of truffles.
By far.
So if you want a little souvenir this is the place.
Yeah, something to eat before you get home.
Something for the kitchen.
Right over there.
Truffles.
Okay, so when we first arrived in Rovinj I was telling either Sam or maybe I was telling
the camera that it reminded me of Italy of Bergamo but now that we're by the water and
we've got these buildings behind us it makes me think of Venice even though I've never
been to Venice.
Well it is not far from Venice.
I mean yeah that is true.
Yeah because this used to be part of the Venetian Empire.
Right.
Yeah so it definitely has an Italian vibe.
It sure does and I'm finding that the more we walk around it is kind of the quieter areas
that I'm really appreciating.
Yeah.
Like the back alleys and some of these homes as opposed to businesses.
Yeah this would be a very cool place to live I have to say.
It is a wonderful place to get lost as a tourist.
It is.
That is for sure.
Yeah, that has been our favorite thing to do today I think.
Just getting lost in these back alleys.
It is just been so much fun just wandering around without too much of an agenda to be
honest.
Right what is the plan next.
So the plan is to make the trek up to Saint Euphemia's and along the way according to
our research we should pass by some artist markets so we'll film that a little bit as
well.
Let's do it.
Atop the hill, we reached St. Euphemia's Church.
If you're feeling particularly brave, you can even try climbing the bell tower's infamous
creaking wooden steps.
Such are the steps' reputation, that there's even a bulletin board inside the church with
photos of what to expect.
We didn't make it to the top, thought I was happy to settle for terrace views.
Later that afternoon, the skies finally cleared, so we enjoyed another walk along the harbour
as well as a gelato stop along the way.
We are getting gelato.
Gelato.
Oh.
Alright guys it didn't take us very long to find some ice cream.
There was like 3 or 4 places that looked amazing so we just settled on the one near the end
of the waterfront that we've been walking along.
What is the place called?
Bella something.
Yeah, oh it is right there.
Porto Bello.
Portobello.
So I got peanut and also caramel flavor and what did you have?
I went for melon and strawberry.
I like fruity gelatos.
And the sun is coming out so it is melting fast so we're just going to eat it now.
Okay, so we are finishing up the day here watching the sunset.
We found a little bar slash restaurant called Puntulina and it has got a great spot we have
to order food but we've eaten so much and we just had ice cream so we just grabbed one
of their seaside mats.
Haha.
And we're going to have a drink.
And there comes your tea.
Thank you.
And your tea has arrived.
Yeah look at that.
I'm cold so I went with tea.
Sam is actually having beer.
Alright guys it has been a nice day but it is also been a very very long day.
Yeah.
So we are back at the bus terminal waiting to catch our bus to Pula in about 30 minutes.
And right now it is six thirty.
We are catching the bus at seven and we'll arrive back at Pula in 45 minutes.
At Seven forty five.
So what's the verdict on Rovinj (Rovigno)?
You can definitely explore the town in one day, but if you have a few days to spare,
this would make an even better base to explore the rest of Istrian Peninsula.
