Dubrovnik is ridiculously beautiful, endowed with a crazy number of steps, tourists, steps, cats, steps, bars, steps, gelato shops and steps.
It's also another city with evidence of its war wounds. In 1991, during the Homeland War, more than 600 shells hit the Old Town in a single day, causing massive damage and loss of life. While much has been rebuilt, there are still many signs of the recovery, and the city is determined not to forget.
We did some more swimming, bobbing in the sea off the rocks; climbed the city walls and ate more gelato; had a drink in the 'secret' bar halfway down the cliffs under the walls; swam and snorkelled on a half day boat trip to the 'Blue Cave'. There's a definite theme coming through here...
