I am still in Dubrovnik, having a fantastic time. We are staying in a great apartment, with excellent proximity to multiple beaches, and fancy hotel pools, which we have been making a habit of sneaking into. Yesterday, our fantastic hostel owner, who loves us, and a pair of Australians who we have been spending out time with, decided to take us out in his car and give us the "Local tour" of the region. He took us up to the high hills that surround Dubrovnik, which were used by the Serbians to attack Dubrovnik in the Yugoslavian war in 1991. I saw the most amazing views I have ever seen in my life, as we overlooked the entire city, and could see the coastline for miles in all directions. We got an excellent birds eye view of a concert being put on in the Old Town, to which the mayor arrived in a helicopter, which we could see approaching and landing from our vantage point. Around this area there were many wild donkeys and goats, which are condidered by the locals to be heros from the Yugoslav war. We drove all around this region looking at the battlefields and remains of many small villages and buildings that were never repaired. I will try my hardest to post some photos soon.
Today is our last day in Croatia, and I am sad to leave, however early tomorrow we are heading to Mostar, Bosnia, which should really be interesting. It is a small town in Southern Bosnia, and is allegedly the hottest town in the world.
