After breakfast amongst the Roman ruins of Volsonis nightclub opposite where we are staying the nice lady from our hotel appears and shows us round the remains of what was once Volsonis's house ( he was a Roman soldier). There are great lumps of Roman walls just lying around and all now incorporated into the night club - even a sacrificial altar. After the mini tour we head off ever upwards for 4 miles eventually getting to Vrh, hot and very sweaty for the lovely long swoop down to Valbriska ferry port. An uneventful crossing to Rab Island. It's incredibly hot and humid and feels like there will be a storm later (well hopefully later and not whilst we're on our bikes). We are staying in a very posh hotel - the Arbiana, and they receptionists are most amused that we have arrived on bikes! We walk around Rab old town, with its beutiful churches before a storm arrives, which we observe from the shelter of one (!) of our balconies. Another cheap meal out in the evening for £26 for both of us including wine!
