TDI07: Back to the Homeland

This day in 2007:

 20070828_Dubrovnik_035

We arrived in Dubrovnik, an amazing walled city, for the start of 2 weeks in Croatia (the homeland thing is a few generations out). The architecture is ancient - it is surprising to think someone tried to bomb to nothing in the early 1990's!
