First, an addendum to the previous post....when I wrote that post, I was in the middle of some evasive manoeuvers (just like in star trek, people!)....one of the guys from that group (the other two people were a really nice couple) was, unfortunately, planning on going to the same islands as I was to go swimming. I was actively trying to avoid him, and one of my tactics was hiding out in the internet cafe...BUT....a guy I thought was him came in there, and as I ducked out the door, I got caught by the actual guy I was avoiding. Curses! Foiled again! Anyway, ended up going to the beautiful island and I went swimming, but all I could think about was leaving, cause this guy was just sooooo boring, and I really did not want to be there. I see a need to stand up for myself but in a tactful (key word...I can stand up for myself, but.....) way. hm. sounds like a future lesson to me.....any takers on being my teacher in this endeavour? Let me know....
So I'm in Dubrovnik now, heading out to Sarajevo tomorrow. I'll try to put some pics up the next time I'm at a computer, cause I know all this writing must be getting boring by now. Dubrovnik really is impressive. I mean, I don't know what I was expecting, but walking up to these giant walls is something else. I really don't think any pics I take will do it justice, but I'll give it a shot. Been doing a lot of walking here, and think I'm going to head up to the town walls and go for a stroll up there next. I think it's going to be even crazier here tonight than it was last night, cause it's the opening ceremony for the Dubrovnik Summer Festival. It's tourists galore here in the old town, but luckily my wonderful croatian 'travel agent' found me a place on the lapad peninsula, so the house I'm staying in is pretty out of the way...it's beautiful.
I don't really have a lot to report, other than it's really freakin hot.
