Day 15 Dubrovnik Croatia

Touchdown Dubrovnik. Caught my pre-paid shuttle bus into the city and have walked about 1km to my hostel gig for the next 3 nights.
First impressions of Dubrovnik - very pretty setting - especially the old town part where the magnificent walled enclosure appears to resemble a fortress type environment. I’ll definitely be looking inside there.
It’s hot and humid- similar to Greece.
This looks like a fun place.
Tomorrow I have a 12 hour bus tour heading for the Kravica Waterfalls in Mostar. 7am start - so early night as I didn’t get too much sleep at Athens airport last night.
Well my first sightseeing visit was of course to the old town. Wow wow wow! Just such an amazing and awesome place. So I know many of you have been there - and you know that firsthand feeling the place invokes. You just can’t help but be taken back to that wonderful period when places like these prospered. Just beautiful construction, architecture and atmosphere. Those Game of Thrones fans will know that many of the scenes were filmed here.
My hostel accommodation at first impression was pretty good. The room last night had 4 others (a young Sydney couple, a Ukrainian and a Paraguayan).
I had good conversations with all. So that was fun. The downside is that there is a definite plumbing problem coming from one of the men’s bathrooms. That aside all good. I had a great sleep.Read more
