Rain Rain Go Away!!!!!
Up down up down up down, how many stairs can a human possibly handle without losing sanity? Brad can handle a seemingly infinite number of treacherous stairs with ease, and he says " I'm not even out of breath Sam, whats the problem?" O.k sure Brad.

The old town fortress was chivalrous: As you approach the fortress you begin to see the damage that has so recently been done to this bewitching town by the recent war. The war was still going in the eary 1990's. Bullet ridden homes, builings marred by fires and destoyed by bombs, and of course the scars only visible in the villagers' sincere eyes. Yet this is only a small part of this encanting city. The people welcomed us with arms open and the spirit of the city was thriving. Tourism is annoying at times but in a place like Dubrovnik that was damaged by war, tourism can really help the economy, and seems to be a main source in Dubrovnik.
The beaches were awe-inspiring, and seductively invited us to play, frolic and swim( especially when we stumbled upon the most serene beach yet, loaded with local men playing poker in their speedos he he ). We soaked up the sun on the rocks, then had a most romantic kiss after floating into a sexy cave. The cave crept just enough sunlight in to allow us to gaze into eachothers eyes and realize how truly happy and lucky we are. O.k. enough of the sappy stuff...Let's talk about the rain. The rain was not cool and put a damper in our play time.All of this happened on day one.

Day two, more rain. Rented mopeds. Rain Rain Rain.
Day three, more rain. Drunk with locals. Galic football...what's that?
Day four, thunder, lightening, and yes, more rain, more stairs, rain, rain, rainy rain I hate you.

Day five, Bleep you rain. Almost blue skies...you tricked us rain. Poo on you rain.
Day six rain and , a wee bit of sunshine. Perfect for our trip to Mljet, a natural wonder of an island preserved and unscathed by commercialism and disgusting tourists like ourselves. Green so green, skinny dipping and the most romantic scenery we have encountered. It may have been enhanced by our skinny dipping but that's the point right?
Over all Dubrovnik was a sensational experience, especially because we don't get to shower all that often, so the rain was needed I guess. Sure the rain was great.
Love from the city with the most stairs (and rain) on earth, Sam and Brad

Hey guys,
That was the most off the wall,
borderly insane,extremely well thought of (and very creative) story that I have ever read. Ya'll are damn near crazy. Im sorry that you ran in to all of that rain and all of those stairs, that must have sucked. But it does sound like you made the best of your Croation experience and still were able to visit Monkey Hell. Next time I'm coming, Screw Disney World. I love you guys. Keep Bloggin.

Love Your Brother Mike.
