<em style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Day 241 Thursday 15th September 2016 – Dubrovnik to Split Are we sad to leave Dubrovnik? Unsure. Amazing place, had a great time and had good accommodation, but not sure we fell in love with the town and it is over hyped and over populated by tourists – perhaps deservedly so. Had to be out of our apartment by 10 so got up at 7 and prepared our... Read Full Entry

Goldilocks moment...
So happy to hear you had a Goldilocks moment in Zadar - I love it when that happens! And also so impressed that you both pressed through the fog of feeling sick on a travel day...well done (although when I hear Tony Abbott speak, my blood boils and I usually throw things at the TV!) :)

Goldilocks moment...
We can now fully appreciate the hype on Croatia, it deserves it and with Turkey falling off the travel agenda it is only going to get more popular. I used to throw things at the TV when Alexander Downer and John Howard were on, but after destroying a lot of TV's my anger now comes out as nausea.

Croatia
Sorry you weren't feeling well. Zadar sounds like an interesting town. I'll have to do a bit more research. Not a location we know much about. Love hearing about locations that are unfamiliar to us. Love the music scene.

Croatia
The Croatian coast is full of the most amazing town, and we wished we had a bit more time visit some more. The town of Pula up near the Slovenian border even has a large Roman era Arena - which we heard about the day before we left. There is a lot to see and do.

Looks nice!
So glad to hear your both feeling much better, awful to feel like shit when your travelling. The basking sounds incredible.....nice to hear familiar tunes played well. Funny, I only stayed for one nite in Split when I visited it in 98....probably didn't give it enough time to impress. x

Looks nice!
I loved Split but Shelley wasn't as happy, but both really enjoyed Zadar. Croatia just has so many great places.
