Rab Town to Novalja

Up bright and early in order to catch a little taxi boat to the next island of Pag. Having negotiated a fare yesterday we met the boat at the quay in Rab and loaded up, our bikes propped in the stern. Fourty minutes later we landed on the sparsley populated northern tip of Pag. Each island now seems to be more arid than the last. Fragrant shrubs, twisted gnarled olive trees and monolithic dry stone walls lined the road. We made our way south through the heat of the day with the Adriatic to our right and the mainland mountains to our left. With not far to go and only a few days left until we rendevous with Callie's dad and the boat, we allowed ourselves a short day and relaxed in the shade in the afternoon.
