Dubrovnik, Croatia (2007)

We got to Dubrovnik in the evening, but every single hotel, B&B, apartment and room was fully booked for a 50 mile radius.  After spending hours trying to find something, we sat dejected in an internet café considering the idea of buying a large comforter and sleeping on the beach.  An American/Croatian guy in the internet café knew of a cluster of hotels just outside the city that were very new and probably not on the search engines.  We called them up and sure enough they had 1 room available.

The thing to do in Dubrovnik is go to the old city and walk along the city walls.

A nice spot to dine.

 

They won’t let me take this thing through airport security.

 

I introduce breakdance to Dubrovnik.

 

Another fortress, another conquest.

 

Goodbye Dubrovnik!
