Dubrovnik, Croatia

Summer starts in June and this time off to Dubrovnik for the perfect hols. One of the hidden gems in the Adriatic Coast, the trip was planned in advance with an old friend from primary school. Easyjet was the cheapest option to go for our holidays from London Gatwick direct to Dubrovnik.

The view of the old city

As we get into the airport, the first thing is to get a rented car to make it easy for our hols. It was relatively cheap to rent a car and drive around as the public transport was not as established like London. There is no GPS available which means we have to read maps (Yikes!! obviously, I am not good at it) However, assurance was given that it would be easy to drive around as there is one main road in and out from the city.

Just arrived with the rented car. Dressing up casual in white jeans and black sleeveless from M&S.

 

 

As soon as we arrive, it was good to know that the apartment we are renting is facing the sea.. Check it out..

 The plan is for us to buy our own groceries and have breakfast in the apartment. Lunch and dinner will be enjoying the local food We just walk around the place near the apartment and found this nice place..

The nice setting for lunch. Things I have noticed in Europe, table settings are important even for normal restaurants...

White bates, crunchy eaten with the bones

Things to do in Dubrovnik are kept simple as we are having relaxing holidays. Visit to the old town, ancient city walls and island hopping. The island hopping that departs from Dubrovnik is visit to the Elafiti islands (Kolocep, Lopud and Sipan)

Mussels for dinner. 

Walking around the old city is our favourite pastime.. This included people watching..:)

The great atmosphere in the Old Town

There is a lot of small streets, cafes and little shops in the old town Dubrovnik. It is has everything to cater for different needs. One thing which I find tough in the old town is to find a parking.. Once you got this sorted, the rest will fall into places. Good fun indeed!!
