A gorgeous day yesterday to drive the Dalmatian coast from Trogir to Dubrovnik. But oh what a zoo when we got here at 4pm. Traffic jams everywhere, no parking. Found out it will be $160 a day at the lot close to the gate where we had to enter.
We found out later it is $20 a day out at the port so we paid for 1.5 hrs, found our apt, drove out to the port,and took a cab back ($16). All the clothes I brought for summer weather for our long stay in Dubrovnik are still in the suitcase in the car! We will manage here with one change of clothes for 4 days.
We are booked in here for 4 days plus 1 (have to move to another apartment) so we will be pulling the plug after the 4 days and cutting our losses. On top of that, rain forecast for tomorrow and Friday!! We had hoped to drive to Montenegro but will give that a miss if it's raining too! Sheesh. So much bad weather this trip.
Thank goodness we repacked not to bring our suitcase, and only brought two carry-on bags to drag through the cobbles and up steps and steps to our apt, which is very big!
We are rethinking the rest of our time in Croatia and will try to stay on one of the islands, probably Korcula, and I'll start looking for a place there. Vineyards, just up Ted's alley.
