On the Croatian coast, we stopped in Piran.

We went down the middle of Croatia on a new hiway open only two months.
The rest stops weren't even done yet. Here is

Next was Makaraska, on the coast.

We crossed the
Bosnian border.
Here is a
Bosnian road sign.
and some islands.

We passed a place with orange stands.

Then we went to the medieval town of Dubrovnik.
Absolutely recommended.
We splurged on a nice hotel. Here is the town
as seen from the hotel terrace.
You can walk the walls of the town. Here,
looking east.
The town was heavily bombed during the war, but they fixed
all the roofs.
One night, walking through the old town of Dubrovnik, they were filming a movie.
It is Cassanova, produced by the BBC ??? (we were told).
Here is
the actress.
they were fixing her dress.

Dara got up early to take this sunrise shot and this one.
