Dubrovnik was an amazing place to visit. I definitely want to go back at some point in the future. In order to get to Dubrovnik, we had to take a tender from the ship because it couldn’t dock. That was an interesting experience. The tender was more susceptible to the roughness of the waves. It was like we were on a roller coaster! We walked around and bought a few presents. I found this beautiful piece of jewelry for my friend Katie and also bought mini lavender stuffed pillows. The currency threw me a little bit because it seemed so much larger. However, the conversion was like 5.00 Kuna to 1.00 Euro. There was a fresh market with these little home made treats. I tried these mandarin, orange candies. They were pretty good. We also tried the gelato of course. I didn’t really like it here because it was creamier than the gelato in Italy.
We went to this 3D Movie theater to watch a film on the history of Dubrovnik. That was also pretty interesting and I found out that Pokovka is the word for Popcorn there! While walking around, I also noticed posters for the Great Gatsby, which made me want to see the film once I got home to the states. We also saw a poster for a big MTV party (apparently Dubrovnik is the spot for young people, they have the best parties!) After our day in Dubrovnik, we headed to the tender to get back to the ship.
Dinner was pretty special that night because our waiter asked the chef to make cheesecake specifically for me! I also was able to have another one of my favorite drinks on the ship: a Fruit punch, complimented with an orange and a cherry!
Much Love,
Court
