Our paths crossed once more with our friends Liz and Colin who are now travelling around Europe in their Bumblebee VW van. They are keeping a blog of their adventures on the road which also features a section on their cooking while in the van. Inspired, we may try to copy this soon with a special post on our one and only meal we cook over and over again. Stay tuned for our lentil curry post! Anyway here's their blog = http://bumblebeetakeseurope.wordpress.com/
Dubrovnic was a great spot to catch up for a few days and relax while washing mounds of our smelly socks. It is very affordable to rent a flat privately in this part of the world, especially if a few of you are sharing. We were glad to be indoors for a bit as there were amazing storms thundering across the sky on and off. Between the rain however it was quite warm and we visited the rocky inlets to swim and read.
Dubrovnik's walled old city is very picturesque. It sits on a small peninsular that slopes steeply to the sea giving the town its long narrow alleyways of stairs. There are no cars or even bikes within the walled city because there is no room on the ancient narrow paths. It's very touristy here with the town looking beautifully restored and filled with restaurants and boutique shops. However, its tastefully done and retains its lived in charm - but we have been warned that in high season it can be hard to move in there for all the tourists. Off season definitely seems like the way to go on the popular parts of the med coast.
