Dubrovnik... and rafting in Omis. Very exciting.














Here are some photos from above Dubrovnik. You can really get an idea of the walls around the city. We had a great time walking around.


After Dubrovnik, we drove to Omis to go river rafting. When we booked the rafting trip, the tourist agency described the rafting as a nice trip with lots of little falls... very exciting! We loved the way she said very exciting, and kept saying it the rest of the trip. Well, she was right. It was very exciting. Minor rapids, but exciting because we were back on the water. We rafted with some of the guides. Melanie and Jenny had a guide who didn't speak a lick of English. At one point they stopped because their guide was the back person who made sure everyone made it through. They stopped at a barbecue and were invited to join in eating and having a beer with the group! But, they had to get back in the boat. After a beer of course!












After the rafting, we stayed in Omis, our last night in Croatia. We stayed above the city, which gave us a great view. We had a wonderful dinner in town - giant fish plate for Melanie and Jenny (so sad when it was gone), steak for Melissa, goulash for Mandy. It was great food.
