We ended up driving through Bosnia and we had a 20 minute break to stretch out, which was VERY nice! Since we were traveling through a small section of Bosnia we were only in it for a little bit, BUT.....that's one more country to add to my list of places I've been! 4 Countries in 8 days, that's pretty good! Anyway, We finally arrived in Dubrovnik around 5 ish and took a taxi to our hostel. We had our own room (which was not pink), bathroom and, the best part, our own BALCONY that looked at the mountains!
If you look at the bottom right side you can see a fenced in soccer area. This provided some good entertainment for both of us when we wanted to relax. The kids who would play were hilarious to watch!
We decided to wander around some of the streets near our hostel since it was only 7. While exploring, we found a small food stand on the sidewalk called "Fast Food Heidi's". We decided to try one of their cheeseburgers and see how they compared to McD's. When the guy brought our burgers to us we were surprised. The burgers were much bigger than we expected! They had tomatoes, shredded lettuce, red peppers, some kind of red sauce and some kind of mayo. DELICIOUS!
The next two days we went to the city center to look at Dubrovnik Castle. The lady who ran our hostel said we were only 10 minutes away. Turns out 10 minutes in Croatia = 32 minutes real time. Quite a bit longer than we thought! Even though it was a hot walk, the breeze from the sea was very nice. Thank you Adriatic Sea!
Colin and I both enjoyed seeing the castle and walking around the castle walls. The walk maybe took over an hour to do, but it was so nice and there was so much to see from up there. Walking along the streets of the castle was also very nice.
I'm having some trouble uploading more photos of the castle and everything else I wanted to show you so this on will have to do for now. I'll put some up very soon if I can get online again. Tonight Colin and I are going to an Irish pub with some of his friends for 2 for 1 burgers. I'm excited about that. I hope life is going well for everyone, see you all soon!
