A very quick 11km ride today into Dubrovnik.  Great scenery of the coast, with a few hills just to work the legs.

Just as we were approaching the Dubrovnik Bridge the German couple (Rebecca and Jonas) came up from behind … 3rd time we have seen them … what are the chances?  Nice to chat again with them.

Over the bridge and down by the port.  Two big cruise ships have docked this morning.  John is excited; he thinks he’s in Fremantle.

We are able to leave our luggage and bikes at the accommodation to walk into the Old Town.  We are approached by a tour scout for an out of town car trip, to the bridge and the mountain for spectacular views.  Before a quick walk through the Old Town; it’s tourist central  … we’ll do a walking tour tomorrow.

Back to investigate the beach nearby, a short 15 minute walk, John is counting the steps …  253, it’s rocky but lovely and clear and refreshing. just as we are leaving from a different direction, another beach is in our sights, small pebbles … that to explore tomorrow.
