Friends again.

Sarah and Tim from Split met up with me on my last night in Dubrovnik. They had just come from Mostar, which they said was nice but still looked war-torn. They talked about buildings scarred with bullets and many grave sites with the deaths dating in the 1990's. It sounded like the place was a little depressing now, but could be quite terrific in the summer. (I would have joined them but it just didn't fit in my schedule).

We had a lovely seafood dinner. Tim's risotto was in a black sauce, which looked kind of Halloween-y, but he thought it tasted good. Afterwards, we stopped for a drink at this place called Fresh, an obvious traveler's hang-out, and then headed to an Irish pub despite Tim's protests. We should have listened to him. Some guy played UB40 on a synthesizer, while this random girl writhed around to the music and two drunk guys danced with each other. It was really random. But it was great to see Tim and Sarah.

Tim has a few more traveling days and then will go live in France. Sarah is continuing her around-the-world trip and will be in New York the end of December. We plan to meet then.

Seafood dinner.



There's weird people in here. Is it Tim? Naahhh.
