| Vela Glavica Church |
Still a bit windy today but nothing like yesterday. We have an appointment to go and see a local artist, Stipe Nobilo, at 10:15pm in Lumbarda in Vela Glavica. Tomi and Loris dropped us off at the church and we walked over to Stipe Nobilos. Stipe was born in Lumbarda and has always lived here. He has shown his work around the world but never felt the need to live anywhere else. He has a lovely new studio that is attached to his old house, that was designed by his son who is an architect. They did a lovely job of making everything work well together.
After our visit, we returned to the church area and everyone found a place to paint for the afternoon.

Jim, Sue and I walked into Lumbarda to see if the souvenir store was open but it was not, so we went for coffee instead While we were there Chris, Karin and Georgia joined us and then Georgia and I went to the grocery store to buy some local spices.
Back at the church people were finishing off their paintings and several decided to walk back home, but first stopping at More Restaurant for a drink. The bus came at 3:30pm and we dropped the balance off at More to join the group.
I found out that the souvenir shop was open so I drove back to Lovric to pick up Jima and Gitta so they could buy their Glagolitic t-shirts… they bought me one too as a thank you.
