Today we explored the Old City of Dubrovnik starting at 6am to have most of the streets to ourselves. It is a beautiful old city.

We then did the walk around the top of the city wall which provided great views across the town. It also included some galleries and the Maritime Museum which was quite interesting.

After a great dinner of calamari for Mamfa and black cuttlefish risotto for Mawfa (including getting a black tongue and black teeth from the cuttlefish ink), we took the cable car to the top of Mt Srd for city views and an interesting exhibition of the Croatian independence war in the fort at the top.
