And on to Dubrovnik

I left Split finally, and headed south. I spent a night on Korcula, an beautiful island. I ended up at a campsite, that was run by an elderly couple. I am sure they were about 90  They very nice but we couldn't communicate. With 4 languages between us, we had to rely on hand signals and guessing. It made for an interesting conversation. I was the only person there, and it was more like I was camping in theor backyard. But what a beautiful setting, as you can see from the photo I put up yesterday. The next day I went to Dubrovnik. On the way I ended up going through the town of Ston, where there is the second largest stone wall in the worls, second only to the Great Wall of China.Not bad. It was awesome, and it encircled a hill top. You can walk around it, but it was too late in the day for me to stop that long. It looked like hard work too. I got to Dubrovnik and was welcomed to the hostel by the family that runs the place with a nice glass of grape brandy with honey. Yum. My plan was to go to the island of Mljet which is 3/4 National Park, but because it isn't high season, the ferry doesn't do a return trip. Bugger. So I spent the day looking at Dubrovnik again, which wasn't too hard a task. The weather was gorgeous, and there weren't millions of tourists. I relaxed the afternoon away on a nearby uninhabited island, laying in the sun, and reading. Not a bad way to spend an afternoon! Today I will go to Mljet, spend the night there, then head on to Bosnia tomorrow. I have spent 2 weeks in Croatia, and it has been a fantastic time, but I am ready to move on... I'll write when I get internet next, but I'm sure Bosnia is not that backwards to not have the net. So I'll write soon!
