June 16

Last Wednesday didn’t have a planned event until 4pm, which was a tour of Old Town Dubrovnik. So a few of us decided to go to Lokrum, a nearby island (the ferry is $6 roundtrip). A lot of people had gone on Monday, when we weren’t there yet, and it was apparently beautiful. Kristi and I joined a few others, and really only had time to take some pictures of peacocks and swim in the dead sea, since we had to get back and shower and dress for the afternoon tour. I was thrilled though since we got the chance to jump off some small cliffs, and I’m a huge fan of freefall. But it was fun, and we planned to go back.

The tour of Old Town was pretty nice as well, albeit hot hot hot. We took some great pictures down from the ground level, and then from the top of the city wall. I also found 200 kuna (about $33) on the ground, so it was a profitable excursion for me. Dinner was after the tour, at a restaurant called Orhan. It apparently has mixed reviews, but the view was beautiful and the food decent. The ladies then separated off and we had a bit of a bachelorette party. We had to be up early in the morning for the next days activities, but we got in some drinking and some dancing and some lingerie gifts for the bride. Also possibly some skinny dipping in the ocean. When in Croatia.
