Dubrovnik was easily the most gorgeous place that we visited on our trip. They have had a revolution in the past 50 years, and all of the buildings that were damaged or destroyed now have orange roofs (which is the country color). It's pretty amazing to look over the top of the city and see that 90% of it has an orange roof. Breathtaking. Joel and I got into the little city first thing in the morning before all the shops were open, and it was so gorgeous and peaceful. There is a fort on the coast that has an entire city within its walls. We walked the circumference of the city as the sun was rising. I think that walk will be forever engrained in my memory. It was perfect.
Things we learned:
1. Dubrovnik has the best slushies in the ENTIRE UNIVERSE!
2. Apparently, the man at the shop on the wall thinks it is Christmas all year round.
3. Get to the old city first thing in the morning to walk the wall. It was amazing.
4. Croatia is the most beautiful city we have been to yet.
5. You know those pictures where the ocean seems too blue and too clear to be real? Yeah. It's real in Dubrovnik.
