101 dalmatian's coast

We haven't really been able to plan our days in advance due to the uncertainty of the weather, however, woke up to another sunny day today! We decided to do the Dubrovnik cable car, as it was running for the first time this week. It's a short ride up the Srd Hill, where there are panoramic views of the city and the beautiful Dalmatia coastline. We spent some time enjoying the views and had a coffee in the open-air restaurant. They gave us blankets, which was helpful as it was super windy up there!

Tom was really keen to walk up there, but I absolutely did not want to do that, so we compromised with getting the cable car up and walking back down, hearing promises of 'it can't be that far'. I did not really enjoy the physical walking, as I kept slipping on the rocks, but did enjoy the views and was so grateful we hadn't walked up. We certainly deserved our lunch after it took over an hour to get down the hill.

After lunch, we ventured over to a different part of the coast called Lapad. We were a bit underwhelmed by 'sunset beach' as there were a lot of closed down hotels and restaurants, and nowhere to get gelato in sight!

We did enjoy going to a bar in a cave for a drink and a cool down before getting the bus back to the hotel to catch some early evening rays and dinner.Read more
