Saturday: Placards

Today was the age old dilemma between best photo and photo of the day. As usual, photo of the day won.

We had a nice, leisurely start, driving out of Split to the Kaštelas, a string of seven villages, right by the sea. We stopped for a swim (first of the year) and lunch.  

And then, this afternoon, the reason we are here, namely Gay Pride.  It was a treat to be here and I am lucky that I get to attend for work but also on a personal level.  On the plus side, the number of police was significantly down from when we attended a few years ago.  On the down side, so were the number of participants.  In total, there were maybe about 150.  But it was held in a positive spirit.

Rather touchingly, we were having dinner this evening and our waitress whispered to us that she had seen us on TV attending Pride, and she thought it was a good thing........
