I'm leaving Dubrovnik (Croatia) tomorrow so before I leave I wanted to take in the whole city with a cable car ride. The nice thing about this cable car is that the whole ride only takes about 5 minutes and the views are quite stunning.
Tour of the Abode
Before I leave I wanted to immortalize my stay by doing a quick tour of the room I rented in the Old Town. There aren't really any modern buildings, so it seems like most of the "hotels" within the walls of the fortress are converted homes with just 5 or 6 rooms that are rented out. I'm staying at a place called "Ragusa 2." The same people own the restaurant around the corner, also called, "Ragusa 2." One of our tour guides said that "Ragusa" is a very common name in Dubrovnik and people will often use it, or derivations of it, even when their family name isn't Ragusa. When I told him the name was "Ragusa 2" though, he said, "Oh yeah, they also have a Ragusa 1. There are only a few very rich families in Dubrovnik." It seems like the daughter runs this place and the restaurant and she seems really nice and speaks fluent English with almost no accent.
Beautiful town. My late grandfather made a huge panoramic painting of Dubrovnik in the late 60's. Was invited by Tito in some cultural exchange program. Some day I will visit.

Whose cat was that? He looks pretty friendly and cute
The cable car looks pretty cool not sure I would have gone on it though as I find them a bit scary.
The accommodation is pretty impressive.
The rooms and doors here in England are all pretty much the same size as the American ones. The only ones that are more cramped are the really old ones from times when people used to be very short. Anything from the last 5o years is the same size as most other places in the world.
