We hope enjoy your trip Ely. That picture at the top is of Kotor which is at the end of the Bay of Kotor. We visited there 50 years ago on a small cruise ship that only held 120 passengers, we were only 19 at the time and it was a wonderful experience. We started from Pula then to Venice and worked our way down to Corfu then back to Pula after 7 days of visiting beautiful ports and islands including Dubrovnic. Bon voyage.
They're both beautiful places and we're sure you'll enjoy them both. Dubrovnik was badly damaged by shelling and mortar attacks during the civil war in the 90s. It brought tears to my eyes seeing the damage and hearing of the loss of life. We recognised a market place we'd shopped in on our visit that'd been hit by mortars, it was horible to see. Thankfully they've rebuilt now. Have a safe and memorable trip.
On a previous trip to Croatia we met a family whose children were told by soldiers at their school that they had an hour to leave town. Belgrade was damaged by Nato bombing and if you travel the outback of Croatia you’ll see shell holes in old houses and buldings.
No other words except WOW!!!💕

Thank you Alf. We will be in kotor. First stop will be in Dubrovnik. It will be a week until we get there. Have stops at Houston, Dallas and Toronto.
