The Walled City

Dubrovnik, Croatia


Today was our frist full day in Dubrovnik,Croatia. Instead of waking up around 8:00 like we thought we would we all woke uo arounf 11:30 am! I guess we were all pretty exhausted! When we finally got out of our apartment it was already 12:30! Elaine decided that she would do her own thing today, (I guess she got sick of us!) so she left Rick,Roxanne, Lily and I to have lunch by ourselves. After lunch my parents sister and I walked around the wall of the old city. On top of the wall we could see everything! The water, old city and an Island off the coast. It was amazing view!

After our walk along the wall it was time to explore Dubrovnik more. Since Dubrovnik is so much more tuoristy everything costs money! To get into a historical building or walk the all you had to buy a ticket! The tickets are cheap but still...
my parents, Lily and I bought ice cream, went shopping and checked out the beach. We then met up with Elaine again and shopped a little bit more. My dad and I bought shoes my grandma and sister bought bags and my mom bought a ring. Then we came back to the room chilled out a bit, my mom listen to her podcast my dad and I worked on the blog a little and my sister and grandma read their books. Elaine had a very interesting wayt of reading her book, since her room has no light in it she has to read while holding a lamp.
Then we went to dinner, got more ice cream and came back to the room. Our first day in Dubrovnik was very nice. Tomorrow we are moving apartments because of location problems but I will let my mom explain that in another blog!

Best pic from the trip is the one of mom holding the lamp - that made me laugh out loud.
Sounds like you are having a cool trip.
Really enjoy the blog entries - keep 'em coming.
Envious of your stop in Italy. It's on my "places to go" list. Share lots of pictures.
Hi to all.

Dubrovnik is a really nice place. How did you find the locals were? When I was there I found the service to be surprisingly rude (in the cafe's, shops etc.) but the Vila owners extremely nice.
