FROM TROGIR TO DUBROVNIK

It’s a very scenic drive either up through the Dalmatian mountains or along the spectacular coastline from Trogir to Dubrovnik. Missing the turnoff at Split, we went up into the mountains at first, craggy, dry, mountains with the occasional village tucked away in a valley. A spectacular drop from the ridge to glistening Adriatic towns, some tucked into azure sandy bays, and towns hanging over steep cliffs down to the sea. 
  It’s a huge resort area with a short 7k stretch that is Bosnia, no customs or border problems there, but our passports stamped on re-entry to Croatia all the same.
  We drive down  through the touristy riviera area, past the very fertile Neretva Delta with orange groves and hoards of produce stalls along the road, and  increasing touristtour buses. 
  Into Dubrovnik, we can see where we are headed but there is an hour traffic jam to get there. Parking is chaotic. This is not looking to be such a good idea...
