... longer to rebuild the bridge in the 21st century than it did to build it in the 16th century. But on July 23, 2004, the new Old Bridge was inaugurated with much fanfare, and was immediately embraced by both the city and the world as a sign of reconciliation.&#8221; &#8211;Rick Steves<br><br>------------------------- ---------------------------------<br><b r>If anyone is wondering about the war that took place in Bosnia, we typed up an excerpt from Rick Steves&#8217 ...

... Bata drove and we were on our way. From the start it was apparent how passionate Bata was about telling his story of the war to people from around the world. He would drive to an area and stop the van and start expanding the history of the war. The war itself is very confusing and to this day a lot of people who were in it are still confused over it. Long story short from 1956-1984 the areas of Croitia, Bosnia, Belegrade, Mentengro, Serbia were all part of Yugoslavia (I may have ...

... her wrist at me with contempt when she delivered my change. Who cares. I had my bag and that was all that matters. She's probably been doing that job since Tito came to power, but I suppose it is a step above being the toilet matron. Maybe bag ***** and all the luxuries and entrapments associated with sitting in a hot wood box is a promotion. Who knows.<br><br>About four hours later we rolled into my destination of Mostar. Somehow everything just ...

... the side of this mountain in a cave! it was wild! I got a glow stick adn a free heineken shirt which is now for dad! It turned out to be quite hot so while everyone was dancing and having a great time I jumped into the ocean at side of the bar and took myself for a swim!!! haha it was great! but noone else would swim with me! they let me dance on the bar in the cave as well!!!<br><br>So needless to say friday was ...

... building that was in ruins, completely shattered from the shelling. I found out it was a bank building. i don't know what it is, but to see ruins of a modern building somehow spoke to me more than the architecturally classic buildings lined in front of me. While taking pictures of the destroyed glass building, something came over me, and I grew a pair. In defiance of every travel advisory, in every guidebook about this part of the world, I entered an abandoned building ...

... la valeur historique de ce pont, l'a fait reconstruire a neuf par des artisans qui ont utilise les memes techniques... quelle reussite...ici plus qu'a sarajevo on sent les effets de la guerre: les communautes croates et bosniaques (musulmanes) vivent separees... je suis dans la partie musulmane mais je pense que miran est plutot croate car c'est une partie mixte m'a dit sa femme... comme c'est le temps du ramadan, on cherche pour trouver une ...

Today was our last day in Mostar, having seen most of the sights we decided to catch a local bus to a nearby village that we read about in the guide book. After waiting for 45 minutes at the bus stop in very hot sun, us 6 girls gave up and decided to spend the day relaxing in Mostar. We had a long lunch, very tasty and local cuisine. It was a really nice restaurant, outdoor table in the shade ...

... meg ti skritt i solen. Har en folelse av at jeg er i et ostblokk land naa. Spesielt merkes det paa offentlige kontorer, f.eks. togstasjonen. Var innom der i gaar og sporte om togtider til Sarajevo. Der sitter det en dame som er som hentet ut fra enhver ostblokk film, sliten, graa og tenner royken samtidig som hun snakker med meg. Ikke noe smil, bare gjor noyaktig det hun er satt til aa gjore. Greit nok. Jeg undret meg en stund over hvorfor det selges tyrkiske souvenirer her. Men ...

... good soon and is just waiting for a Visa, so he can start a business in Austria. "Before war i had three houses in Mostar and a good running company. After war, two of my houses were destroyed and my company went bankrupped. Nowadays there is no work and i have little money. I had no problems with anyone during the war, but it destroyed my life for good" At Majdas i met some Croatians, a German-Australian and two guys from London. It is a very cozy ...

Arrived in Mostar at around 11am after a scenic drive along the Dalmatian coast and were dropped off outside a church a short walk from the Old Town of Mostar. We spent the next 2 hours wandering around the streets of Mostar taking in the sights such as the Old Bridge, the Karadzozbeg Mosque and the war damaged buildings. At 1.30pm Tomislav drove us back to our hotel in Dubrovnik.
