Stuck in Dubrovnik

For the forth day in a row, i'm stuck in Dubrovnik. Me i'm a bit of a globetrotter. I spent 19 hours on Nairobi AirPort. Being locked out of the restaurant late at night. Just to find the waiters sleeping on the couches once they had to re-open for breakfast. 

Or Indonesia where I waited hours and hours for the bus company of my choice to Java. Just to find that the opposing line that left hours before us (on time) had ended upside down in the bush. Or in India where our tourist bus had a hold of hours, in the middle of the night. We all got kicked out and had to wait because the driver had some 'small business' to arrange in the nearby village. 

Or Mali, when I arrived at 5am instead of 5pm the previous day in Mopti. Spending half of the night aside the bus, when the driver disappeared looking for a spare-part.

Or Bolivia where we had to wait half a day or so for the bus, crossing a flooded river, where there was no bridge. 

But that was just third world. A 24h delay at max. Now i'm in the Western world, the EC. And yes, they can do better! Of course! A 72hour delay, to start with. With special thanks to easyJet who isn't capable to handle a bycicle on their plane for a few times in a row now. 

 

And According to lonely planet (they're not always right 😆) Dubrovnik is a great place to be. That's right. So I found out with my ex- partner years ago. But one week was definitivaly enough 

"Regardless of whether you are visiting Dubrovnik for the first time or the hundredth, the sense of awe never fails to descend when you set eyes on the beauty of the old town. Indeed it’s hard to imagine anyone becoming jaded by the city’s marble streets, baroque buildings and the endless shimmer of the Adriatic, or failing to be inspired by a walk along the ancient city walls that have protected a civilised, sophisticated republic for centuries."
