Travel to Croatia, Dalmatia, Dubrovnik.


Our first impression of Croatia after we left Montenegro was of more prosperity. It's all relative but a smooth, well-marked highway along the coast was a big contrast to what we had been bumping along In Albania and Montenegro.

But our first sight of Dubrovnik was, WOW!!!!!!!!! 10000 times wow. Our daughter Pip had said we needed to go there and now we see what she meant. If you've been there you may share our wonder or, you may just wonder what we're on about. We got dropped at the port and made farewells to our new chums in the van. Got a taxi to the Pile (Pee la) Gate of the old town and dragged our suitcases through the crowds into the eye popper. It's a movie set! Stone walls surround the town; stone buildings, narrow alleys, marble pathways, ancient buildings, crowds of people, shops going great guns in the old buildings, cafes, bars, restaurants, musical performances in the streets
