So on the wall walk and also after it, wandering the little alleys, we visited a number of cultural sites...
|
In the marine museum |
|
A Mediterranean galley...note submerged ramming prow; these were in use for
centuries |
|
Marine archaeology |
|
Traditional folk street music |
|
Marzipan |
|
Interesting squares, buildings, what have you... |
|
At length, we hiked up to a wonderful air conditioned restaurant named Kopan
(a fattened castrati rooster) and enjoyed a great, light, cool meal; my marinated fish |
|
Mediterranean salad we shared |
|
Her chicken salad |
|
From there we did the ethnographic museum, which is housed in the old granary |
|
And then (see, it really is a Crown of Thorns) |
|
Then I did part of the Walk of Shame (clothed) (high point of the visit) |
|
As Vicki shouted "Shame! Shame!" |
|
"You know nothing, Jon Snow!" (One of the recent Star Wars was filmed here
too) |
|
We did a bit more walking in the alleys, including an interesting antik shoppe |
|
But then our visit to Dubrovnik was over |
|
And we returned to the campground, where, that evening, in the company of
many Croats and others, I watched the Croatian team smother Argentina, led
by the incomparable Lionel Messi, 3-0; a rout, in futbol terms, with highly
regarded Argentina very nearly eliminated from the World Cup |
|
We spent two more days at the campground planning future travels and making
arrangements and also blogging and such; beautiful area; Dubrovnik not so
impressive, I thought; Vicki loved it, however |
