Arrival Dubrovnik



On to Dubrovnik.....I could not sleep...i seem to be either charge up or jet lagged.  I had a 4:30 wake up to catch a 5:30 taxi to the airport. My flight, again on Aer Lingus is leaving at 7:40 and arriving at Dubrovnik at 11 am. The plane had about 20 people tops flying.  The flight was uneventful which is to say a good thing. A few hour plane ride and a world of weather difference.  Dubrovnik is hot.

I arrive at Dubrovnik and look for the local bus to take me into the city. I asked a few airport workers and even the bus driver about the bus but everyone seem to have a surly attitude. A far cry from the friendliness of Dublin.  I found my. Us, paid 6 euro, took my seat in the overcrowded bus and relaxed.  I tried talking to the person next to me but she seem not friendly. Probably an American.

The bus ride would have been or even was glorious  but we hit road work traffic and that slowed everything to a crawl. However, the drive open up where you had a beautiful, panoramic  Adriatic coast.   We arrive and immediately I notice the throng of people and the magical walled city. You cross a draw bridge to enter the town, walk down a flight of stairs and you are on the main road of the city.


I do reach my room, a good size studio apartment.  Elena gave me the 411 and I was off to unpack and relax.
