Apartments Dobrasin Cavtat

... are in places and the construction of it all. <br><br>Crazy that some people live with their front door or windows opening out onto the city walls. Awesome views,but must be pretty annoyed at the tourist trade that has popped up in their town.<br>Went back to the hostel and spent the night drinking and chatting with Nonie, Mark, Greg, Byron, Yu and Karmen and decided to leave tomorrow on the 11pm ferry ...

... to spend a half hour getting from the ship to land. The second night, after taking the tender to grab dinner on the ship, we headed off to Club Fuego since it was the SAS hotspot the previous night. We went with a crowd but the place was so dead that we opted to take to the dance floor by ourselves and make asses of ourselves on video (there was a TV upstairs in the lounge that recorded the dance floor for all to see). We left after about a ...

... cloths and low coffee tables so characteristic of Poland and of Europe in general. The other Americans staying there hadn't vacated the apartment yet so we decided to visit the Konzume supermarket and find food to cook in our apartment kitchen. Jele was right that the food was expensive here. Some things costing much more than in Canada and at best on par with a Canadian convenience store. We split the cooking over two nights. Girls the first night and boys the ...

... in front of the Rector's Palace. The Old Pharmacy, located inside the Franciscan Monastery, was opened in 1317, it is the third oldest pharmacy in Europe, but the only one still working. The inventories, ceramics, bowls, laboratory equipment and old medical books of the old Pharmacy are kept in the Franciscan Monastery Museum, among other ...

... But around noon today a miracle happened...SUNSHINE!!! It's turned into a beautiful, glorious day with the bluest skies and oceans you've ever seen. So we went back to the Old Town and climbed the famous city walls that form a barrier around the old part of the city. From the top of the walls, you are surrounded on almost all sides by georgeous blue ocean and the sound of the waves crashing. The ...

Leave 00:05 Hong Kong Arrive 06:25 Rome CX293 / QF 3861 12h 20m 747-400 Leave 12:20 Rome Arrive 13:30 Dubrovnik OU5617 Well it took a lot longer than above. Rome is the most terrible major international airport both of us have seen; it leaves so much to be desired compared to Sydney or Hong Kong. Finally on the plane and we missed our take off slot. So we waited about 2 hours on the ...

... bonus! From here we had lunch at a nice lake and then unfortunately the coast of Montenegro ran out and we crossed the boarder in to Albania. I think this had to be one of the scariest boarder crossings I have ever come across..... we knew we were out of the EU.... It's weird how you can be scared when you haven't done anything wrong! They really looked at and checked our passports, vehicle papers ...

... the park was as jam-packed as Disneyland in July. A shame really, since the park is a natural beauty... lakes, beautiful waterfalls, and pristine forest. It just isn't the same when you are packed in like sardines while hiking down the "natural" trail. Give me the wide open spaces in Canada any day of the week! By noon, we had enough, so we hit the road for Cavtat (just ...

... in no mood to waste precious travel minutes. We asked about buses to Dubrovnik, but no, the last one had just left. We asked about flights, but no, I was too cheap to buy a ticket. We asked about ferries, but they took several days and we were on a mission. So we did what any other reasonable person would do: we rented a car. Despite the fact that we had no real map of Dubrovnik(or croatia for that matter), no knowledge of Croatian road laws, no place to stay and ...

... people entering it, and it turned out great. They were a French tour group, who gave unintelligible toasts in between a guy playing cornet. The fired squids, fish, and shrimp were spectacular. We then went to another Irish bar where we met a cool newlywed couple, the same Norweigan guys, and some other bars that all kind of blend together. I have pictures of some people, but don't recall anything about them. C'est La Vie. Next Stop: Split, Croatia.
