Dubrovnik

Croatia

We made it to our first stop, Dubrovnik, Croatia! Our flight landed at 9am local time, which meant we had to attempt to stay awake all day to sync our sleep schedules.... it was a struggle. After being greeted by our taxi and settling into our Airbnb, we got to start exploring. We started by wandering the streets of old town, walked the stairs of shame from Game of Thrones, and when all else failed, plunged into the Adriatic to wake ourselves up. It was a good, but sleepy day. Finally, we crashed at 6 pm and slept straight until 7:30 am the next morning!

Enter our first full day in Dubrovnik. See the video above for a recap! We walked the old town walls of Dubrovnik, explored the old fort, and did a bit of hiking (which led to a lot of bug bites!). The views from the wall were amazing. I have never seen water so clear and blue! Also, we have had some amazing food! If you ever make it here, eat at the restaurant named Nishta for some amazing vegan food and a restaurant named Orsan for wonderful seafood! We had raw tuna rolled with hummus and fresh sea bass steamed with veggies along with some local wine.

Tomorrow we will wake up early, take the ferry out to an island called Lokrum. I guess this was a major filming site for Game of Thrones and it supposedly has a lot of great swimming spots. We will upload another video of those adventures!

Thank you for checking in!
