• Dubrovnik Lapad Penninsula

    May 5, 2024 in Croatia ⋅ ☀️ 19 °C

    Phew! Today was a long day and I am so tired! I’m going to bed as soon as I post this. We left the house at 9:30 this morning and didn’t get home until 9 this evening! We started in old town and walked west and wandered along the water and all around the Lapad peninsula! So much walking! Spied on all the beaches, walked up to all the viewpoints on the hills, ended up having lunch and dinner out - we had planned on a late lunch at a place that sounded good that didn’t open until 2…only they didn’t open! So we scrambled and luckily the vegetable risotto is usually vegan so we were able to find some and had that. We were originally going to come back to the apartment to eat dinner, but it was so nice out and we were enjoying the sun and the beaches and we wanted to go up to the big viewpoint for Sunset so we decided to just eat out instead of getting a car to take us home and then wait for another one you take us up there - and I was glad we did as dinner was so so good! And it was easier getting a car in town and we got to the viewpoint just in time for sunset! It was perfect and I loved the views of the Bosnian mountains on the one side and the city and water and island on the other! A long, but really fun day! I really enjoyed our time in Dubrovnik and I would definitely come back again! Tomorrow we move on to Mljet IslandRead more
