Day 17 Dubrovnik - wondering

So today is my free day in Dub. So I’m keeping it pretty loose - but making sure I include some art! My first planned stop is MOMAD - Museum of Modern Art Dubrovnik. According to Google it’s about 2.2Km from my digs at 365 Hostel for U.
Dub is steep (more so than Wellington I recon) so walking is Ok if you’re fit and I’m pretty central so no problem. I wouldn’t want to be riding a bike here. Just too busy.
On my way to MOMAD I discovered a local swimming spot I couldn’t go past. Beautiful setting and fantastic water to cool down. Again it’s bloody hot and humid (more humid by the sea compared to yesterday when the heat was drier).
The gallery was in a beautiful building and setting. Not expansive - quite small - but just a lovely cool atmosphere and soft light. A local artist was having an exhibition - his work was just right along my style - contemporary abstract large and predominantly landscape styles (see video). Loved it!!
I’m now back in the Grad getting lost. Found a little cafe/bar off the track a bit and have just finished teriyaki chicken with sticky rice, coleslaw and avocado with a locally made iced mint and ginger tea. Hit the spot nicely 15€.
Just a few metres away from my lunch spot there’s a doorway through the external wall and leading from that is access to an amazing swimming spot. Check the video.
After all that it time to walk back to my digs. Recharge the phone and my GoPro (which is playing up a bit - not sure what’s going on yet). Hostel 365 has great A/C in our dorm - so after a cold shower and shave it was time to do my editing and updating on FindPenguins. It’s my artistic expression time - I’m glad I didn’t bring my watercolours - that would not have worked for me. So my phone and camera is where I find some creativity.Read more
