Went to the old town of Dubrovnik and Zagreb. Dubrovnik was awesome - at night we went to Old Town on the Placa, if I remember correctly, and drank at some bars (i am not a huge fan of Croat beer, sorry lol) met a hot little Slovenian chick and took her back to the hostel with me. She passed out when we arrived!!! Imagine my anger. In the morning, she made up for the lame night. (w00t) Old Town in the day time is equally as beautiful... then we took a bus to ... Lapad? saw the Adriatic Sea -- very sweet.

I've never actually been to Dubrovnik but it definitely
is the most beautiful and most preserved old town in Croatia ( and the most famous ). Possibly too crowded with tourists, but I think it's beauty evens it out. The south of the croatian coastline is by far the most beautiful part of the country. For a full experience, you should have visited the islands, that's what I would have done if I was a tourist. Although that would take a few weeks...*deeply in love with his own country*

In Zagreb, I attached myself to a Pub Crawl because my friend works as a nightlife guide - basically got pretty trashed - found another girl there, don't remember much about the first night...

I don't much like Zagreb, but I suppose the centre of it is a nice representation of a middle-european city.

MIGHT I say to the Americans who have yet to visit Europe, if you like sex with very good looking people who might normally be out of your league... go now... they are very relaxed about sex over there. End Note.

That might just be because you're an american, I don't think the girls here are
that promiscuous. There are quite a lot of beautiful women here though...not so much men though....

As far as the city... again... beautiful. Hit up a couple of the Museums, the awe-inspiring botanical gardens. Chilled out on the street... err, Illika? Is that how it is spelled? That is the phoenetic pronunciation, anyway. American can equate it to the Magnificent Mile in Chicago, or Times Square in New York, in terms of shopping and the like. Beautiful cathedrals, one with a name that is very similar to Marijuana, I thought that was funny. I wouldn't make Croatia your first stop, but certainly stop there... I can't say that much for Luxembourg

It's spelled Ilica and pronounced Ilitza. Shopping in Europe is very much dispersed, not just Croatia, so most city centres are packed with shops.
Glad you enjoyed yourself, hope you didn't pick up any STD's
