Its is not life that matters, but the journey..
hello all!!
My last day in Dubrovnik before catching the bus up to Žadar tomorrow (8 hour trip). Dubrovnik is another lovely town, most northern town on Croatias coast. The old town is entirely enclosed within a fortress wall which you can climb and walk. The rest of the city has grown outside the walls. The old town is a complete step back in time, to go with the cliche.. apart from the hoards and hoards of tourists.
Hada gorgeous ferry ride over from Hvar to here, took four hours and we travelled at sunset. ferry travel is the way to go, awesome views, the hum of the massive engine, cutting through the waterć- so relaxing and scenic! compared to being crammed onto a bus with naži busdrivers and creepy croatian men with creeping fingers! (poor Gini copped it on the bus, but thats another story..) anyhoo SO went out to the island today for more beach lounging - i am ready to move on from the beach now and get into some adventure! a bit of action! i am turning into an over-sunned blimb. all we eat is loaves of bread, orange juice by the litre (i somehow managed to get a cold despite the very hot climate!) and lots of icecream. i went to the fish market yesterday and we had a big cookup of prawns and fish, the guys couldnt believe it, they had been subsiting on breakfast bars and beer so it was quite the treat!
the partment where we are staying is amaying, so cheap with a patio, balcony, lots of other travellers, nice rooms and (most exciting of all) a clean shower and two toilets, kitchena and even a resident turtle! who we discovered cruising into the kitchen this morning.
I am going to travel onto Žadar and as far up as Žagreb with my new pals, the lovely kiwi Simone and the lovely Canadian Sarah. Looking forward to exploring the national parks, they look stunning with board walks weaving amongst ažure lakes and there is lots of hiking to be done. from there we will head across to belgrade in serbia montenegro and down to istanbul. i am hoping to have a few days in bulgaria and serbia for something different and with my new travel companions this should be possible so very excitiing! I will do budapest later as part of my busabout loop in september as i am now running out of time..
ok just a quick update really, just to say i am alive and well. i am about to try and upload some photos so see how that goes..
ciao for now!
