Leaving Split,
heading to Trogir
Along the way, we passed a beautiful house
located in the middle of a pond(?)
*well, it looks bigger than a pond but smaller than a lake*
We arrived in Trogir after just 1 hour drive from Split. It was a nice small town, surrounded by the city wall. We entered the city wall and started the city tour.

one of the ruling name in Trogir

Bid farewell to Trogir
We ended the tour in Trogir after lunchtime. It was time to continue the trip to Dubrovnik. It was a long drive to Dubrovnik, about 4-5 hours from Trogir.
First sign of Dubrovnik,
spotted after almost 2 hours drive from Trogir
Since the drive to Dubrovnik took too long, we made a stop in Neum, a Bosnian city in the middle of Croatia. It was situated on top of the hill where you could see the view of Adriatic sea below.

Hugo and Rosa would like to snap a picture
of the beautiful view
From Neum, we continued the trip towards Dubrovnik. It took only 1.5 hours from Neum to Dubrovnik and along the way, we were mesmerized by the wonderful sceneries of Adriatic Sea.
Calm rocky beach,
something hardly seen in Indonesia *and also Singapore*
Houses in the slope of the hill,
with private yachts docking nearby
People stopped by to enjoy the beach
Finally, entering Dubrovnik..

There were not many things to do today. We had dinner in Dubrovnik and went straight away to the hotel. We did the sightseeing inside Dubrovnik's old town the next day. So, we just ended the day for now. ;D
