Croatia - Dubrovnik
We had two glorious weeks of sunshine at the same hotel we visited two years ago in Croatia....... nothing had changed, it was still as beautiful as we remembered.
Our room .....
Overlooking the Adriatic Sea and the Elaphite Islands.....
Cruise liners regularly passing by heading for Dubrovnik ....
Off to the next port of call....
Yo-ho-ho trip!.......
Dubrovnik Old Harbour .......
Narrow passages in the Old Town.....
Minceta Tower , highest point of the City Walls....
St Blaise Church ....
Bell Tower - the huge bell in the tower weighs over 2,000 kilos ....
Mouth watering orange trees provide shade from the sun in a nearby park...
The old harbour ....
Ship ahoy! Looking through the hotel reception's porthole windows ....
We didn't attempt the tiring 2km walk along the walls of the Old Town this year, it was so hot that it would have been far too uncomfortable.
As usual, there are are still many unfortunate stray cats looking for scraps of food. The majority of the ones we saw had very sore looking weeping eye conditions. Unfortunately, the conditions will be passed on from generation to generation and will be difficult to control.
One of the healthier looking cats ....
The less fortunate ones ....
Our balcony provided us with a great view of beautiful sunsets .....
