Today started off with an omelette and chocolate in a cute diner in the old city of Dubrovnik, Croatia. The picture that I put on Facebook doesn't even give this city justice. On one hand it was rainy all day, and on the other hand, the city was so adorable that the rain couldn't put a damper on my mood! We broke up in small groups so that we could be free to explore the city. The city looks like it's inside a castle, and there are many museums and old churches within it. Needless to say, it was an exiting day. I paired up with Miranda, a physics major, and we set off in a good mood. Our good mood unfortunately interrupted a movie that was being filmed, and the director quickly told us to be quiet. Luckily, that couldn't ruin our mood either. We explored the city and somehow ended up on top of the city walls, which apparently you have to pay for. We didn't know that, however, so we wondered around for twenty minutes before a man asked us to get down. We then set off to explore the coast of the sea by the city. We found sea glass! We also explored this house area and almost went into a tunnel, but then we thought of the question we are supposed to ask before we do anything suspicious: what would Dr. Bego do? Dr. Bego would not want us to go into the tunnel obviously, and we thought of all the animals and homeless people that might be in there ready to eat us. We then went to a market, where I bought some lemons to eat on the long drive back to Albania. It took six hours, and I am so done with being on a bus for awhile. Tomorrow we get to sleep in! I'm excited for this long sleep. We meet with the former prime minster of Albania. How cool is that?! I obviously need to get my beauty sleep for that. Here are the pictures from the last few days!

The secret area that Miranda and I explored (this picture includes the tunnel we wanted to go into)
Overall, it's beautiful! Obviously. I feel like every word out of my mouth includes beautiful, amazing, and pretty. Those words and these pictures don't even describe the places we have seen. I can't wait to come back!
