I know I'm a bit late to the party, but I recently went to Croatia. It's a beautiful country. Specifically, I went to Dubrovnik - a former prosperous trading hub.
Inspired by other users of this Forum, I decided to take a few photos, which I planned to use in a thread about the city (but I never got round to creating the post).
Here they are:
I also managed to get a quick pic of this little guy!
While I was there, it just happened to be Croatian Statehood Day (May 30th); this is a national holiday in Croatia, where the country celebrates it's 1991 declaration of independence from Yugoslavia.
On that day, we visited the Island of Lokrum, which is the big island just beyond the Old Town as seen in the last photo. We walked around the whole island before visiting the beach, where we stayed for about 30 minutes. As we were leaving, I saw something in the water, which had been washed up. It turned out to be a coin:
The coin is not in great condition but is still quite interesting!
Overall, my trip to Dubrovnik was phenomenal. Thank you for reading! 😄
