Dubrovnik

Dubrovnik, Croatia


Today the ship stopped in Dubrovnik; it did not dock we had to use tenders to get to shore. Once there our tour started, we chose a historical tour of Dubrovnik. Met our tour guide, Kate and then headed to the bus. We boarded the bus to see a panaramic view of Old Town, our ship which was anchored close to the little green island (actual name of island). Took pictures from the look out point; well me and my dad did as mom and Donna didn't like that the viewing platform was a straight drop to the sea. We got back on the bus and headed back to Old Town. In Old Town we had a walking tour which showed us a lot of what happened even as near as their last war in 1992 when Croatia became it's own country (before it was part of the Republic of Yugoslavia). The tour included tours of the Maritime museum and another museum. Dubrovnik is an absolutely beautiful place to visit; the Old Town is all Stone and dates back to many centuries ago.
