Dubrovnik so far

After a busy two weeks of cycling, we have really slowed the pace down. We are both a bit fluey and I've got a cough, so we haven't been doing too much.

Monday:
We were supposed to take a tour to Montenegro on Monday, but the operator called it off - not quite sure why. Instead, we walked down many, many stairs to the old town - entering through Pile gate.

We walked through the small alleys on the western side of the city, climbing up as much as possible, mainly to avoid the tourist throngs. It really is a beautiful old city, but I feel it's being loved to death! We sat on some steps near Cathedral of the Assumption of the Virgin Mary (they love a good cathedral here), and people watched for a while.

Feeling hungry, we decided to take a bus to our favourite bar, Public bar, to get some chicken wings and beer! After filling our bellies, we took an Uber back 'home' for a rest - this cold is taking its toll.

Dinner was pizza from a 'nearby ' restaurant - not that far distance wise, but did I mention the stairs! Pizza, red wine, and Netflix for us!

Tuesday:
We did very little today, although the weather is quite good - I'm just tired. We did walk to a bigger supermarket, Tommy hypermarket (love the name), and picked up some supplies for the day, including the Croatian equivalent of a bachelors handbag!

We video called Marsha in NYC, updating her on our travels and our recovering bottoms post-tour.

Another quiet night in - almost Michelin-starred dining, with fish fingers and fried potatoes, yum!Read more
