Dubrovnik is where we are now, and its BEAUTIFUL!!!
Hi by the way!!
We finally got to meet the legendary STAN AND VERA!!! Yay!

We had a really nice time in Hvar, happy to leave though, and we met up with Vlads parents and cousin Krešo.. (who is SO hospitable and accomodating by the way!)
It was such a relief to see them! It was so long awaited and so nice to see a familiar face. We spent our last day in Split in style and we had satellite t.v. in our guesthouse which was pretty cool. We turned on CNN for awhile to see what was going on with the world. (did you know Steve Irwin the Crocodile Hunter DIED?)
The drive down to Dubrovnik was beautiful on the coast and we even got to drive through Bosnia & Herzegovina?? Another country on our list! The view from our guesthouse here is spectacular as seen in the picture below.

Vlad and i walked around this evening to go eat and walk around and the city is amazing. The walls are 25meters high and it makes you feel like your in a maze! Really something to behold..


Me, Vlad and Stanley Manly!








The view of the sunset from our guesthouse!! Fantastic!







The main square of Dubrovnik. You can faintly see the moon in the background. Even though it is September there are still quite a fair bit of tourists around and even a pair of FIRE JUGGLERS trying to travel around the world on their talent! Really adds something special to the square. They even have a digereedoo...


Id also like to thank Phil who even though your suggestion has already been tried, it was REALLY nice to see a text message from someone at home!! Thanks AGAIN Phyllis,, hugs and kisses...

Ok, off to bed to try and find a taxi up the mountain cuz weve gotten lazy. VLADS BIRTHDAY IS IN 6 DAYSSSSS!!! (hes an old fart 25)
And mom, im proud that you conquered your fear of public speaking! Thats amazing...

love everyone... poutine rocks...mmmm....

What a nice post to wake up to this sunny morning!

I'm so glad that you guys have all finally found each other and in such a beautiful spot in the world too. We're so jealous!!

Matt and I had a nice long weekend. Did a whole lot of nothing, which fit the bill. We had Mikey over for dinner on Monday and last night we met up with Mare and Blah for drinks at Cactus. Mare has just recently come back from Munich, but is now prepping to leave for Manchester like tomorrow. She is one pooped cowboy, let me tell you.

Don't have too much to say this morning. Nothing else really new and exciting I guess. Can't believe you guys will all be home in like 2 weeks! Now I have mom and dad's return flight info, but I don't have yours. When do you return on the 19th??

Enjoy Dubrovnik and say hallo to all the stray cats (that's something that I seem to remember quite vividly when last I was there - they were EVERYWHERE!) in the town centre.
