Dubrovnik - Day 1
I boarded the Bol bus to take me to the ferry and immediately lost 5 pounds in perspiration. I sat in a puddle of sweat while the bus trundled to the other side of the island. The hour long ferry took me to Split. From Split I caught the 5 hour bus to Dubrovnik. All the travel was worth it - Dubrovnik is amazing.
I was accosted by old ladies wanting me to stay in their place as I got off the bus. It is probably the closest thing I will get to being a celebrity so I revel in it. I ended up choosing a pretty cool place just out of town but a really good deal.
Turns out that there is a fellow Vancouverite ex-pat staying there. He lives in London with his girlfriend. Nice enough. I walked around the town a bit and got lost on my way back home. Fun.
