After anothjer lazy morning we realize we are really getting into vacation mode just as it is coming to an end. First thing on our agenda is to visit Dubrovnik's modern art museum. There is a Picasso exhibit on which we get a 'private' tour of as we are the only ones interested - or there for that matter. From what we've read it is a very under visited museum. It is worth a visit.
After the museum it is time to get ready for the wedding. As usual it is HOT, and by the time we meet some people for drinks we forget people watching on a terrace and head for an indoor Irish pub and a nice cool Strongbow.
The wedding is in an old Palace - a great location and also makes a great place for post ceremony Champagne. One of the coolest parts of the ceremony is the bride and groom exchanging vows in 2 languages.
The reception is at our hotel which is very convienent for us, especially when I can no longer take the heat and take a break from the festivities for a shower and wardrobe change!
The hotel also makes a perfect backdrop for a reception. We are outside which although is VERY HOT is beautiful - right next to the sea with a full moon.
One thing that is more noticeable in tonight's heat is how Croatians aren't big on anything chilled. At best drinks come cool pretty much everywhere. Even when iced is put in drinks it is melted in seconds. We have even been served ice alongside wine - not as a cooler, but to put into the wine.
Will post photos later...no computer access...only Blackberry.
