Delightful Dubrovnik!

We could not have wished for a better nor more successful first day of our Croatian holiday. The weather was perfect and our 2 X guided tours were superb!
We started the day with breakfast at a cafe only a few steps down from our accommodation. The Dubrovnik half marathon added to the excitement and festive feel today. Hoards of people running right through the Old Town in blue T Shirts.
We then enjoyed a guided tour of the Old Town led by a young man named Banko who had lived through the Croatian war. His tales of survival moved us all to silent tears.
A refreshing gelato was followed by a tour of the Old Town Walls, led by a young woman, Antonio. Another amazing tour.
After a shower and rest we hit the alleyways for a wine and cheese platter at D'Vinos Wine Bar before heading up another lot of steep steps to Lady Pi Pi restaurant. No bookings allowed, so we lined up and waited for a table. We all enjoyed a seafood platter in a lovely outdoor setting. Worth waiting for!
It doesn't get any better than this!Read more
