Our last morning at Lavanda Apartment, last pre-breakfast visit to the bakery and last entry to Ploce Gate. Quick visit into the old town for a coffee and, in the interests of balance, to the Synogogue and the Mosque.The Dubrovnik Synogogue is the second oldest in the Balkans dating back to the 15th century and the jews of Dubrovnik were required to wear identifying arm bands and limited to a ghetto as far back as the 1520's.
On time pick up for Princess Aloha and on board by 12.30pm. Rested the legs and wandered the "big" harbour. Have seen two amazing on the water events today. Off our terrace this morning we saw a big tuna feeding frenzy and, while wandering Gruz Harbour this afternoon we were watching two navy rubber ducks thinking they had divers down below. Suddenly a dolphin leapt out of the water onto one of them, was covered to protect it and the rubber duck headed to base - presumably a trainng exervise in sonar and detection!!!!
Princess Aloha is just a little over 12 months old. 37m long and 7.7m wide - luxurious all over. Capacity of 40 passengers but we are only a little over half full and about half of the passeners are Australian (then US). Boat is owned by Captain and his wife - tonight was his birthday so we had a celebratory dinner.
