"Mr. Drago is internationale"

After a 7 hour ferry ride, we reached out destination of Dubrovnik, Croatia, which is located right in-between the boarders of Bosnia and Montenegro. We've been finding accommodation by haggling with the inn-keepers who line up at the ferry port and the bus and train stations. This has been by far easier and cheaper than trying to find a spot online. There was some aggressive folks who were charging far too much for rooms, and we were getting a bit discouraged until we met Mr. Drago. Drago was a class-act dude that was a very nice host. He gave us espresso and water, and even cooked us dinner that night. He knew very little English, and everything he said to us was in a mix of Croatian, Italian, and English. Everything he said had "Mr." in it, such as "Hello, Mr. Morning," and "Mr. Gentleman, 1! (long story)"

Long story short, Mr. Drago was a complete dude. Also in his favor: He is a possibly stunt double for Robert Englund, the dude who plays Freddy Krueger.



There was two Swedish dudes staying with Drago as well, and they turned out to be pretty cool. There names were Martin and Richard. Mr. Drago called them "Mr. Ricky Martin," but we're pretty sure he didn't know who the real Ricky Martin was. Here's the gang in front of the giant pot of meat that Drago cooked.



After dinner we went to the Dubrovnik Stari Grad, which is the original walled city. Very impressive fortified city that is still very active, even though all the structures within are from the 15th century. Here's Taylor checking stuff out.



We were only in Dubrovnik for one night, because we decided to head south the Montenegro, the world's newest nation. Hopefully it's as good as Croatia.



Next stop, Kotor, Montenegro.
