My still-hypothetical vacation planning continues…
So, I found another hotel I’m seriously considering for Rome. It’s gotten good reviews on review sites that I trust, it’s in an excellent location (smack dab in the middle of the awesomest relics of ancient Rome, and right near a Metro stop), and I found a good deal on it on Hotels.com.
I haven’t booked it or anything, what with the trip still being hypothetical and all, but I do enjoy the research.
We’re tossing around the idea of combining a trip to Italy and Croatia. It’s cheaper to fly into Italy, and then you can just jump off the heel of the boot and take a ferry over to Dubrovnik, which is where we’re considering going. Have any of you ever been to Dubrovnik or elsewhere in Croatia? I’ve heard wonderful things about it, but I’m a little nervous because I’ve never been to a country where I have zero clue about the language. Even in France I could pretty much read signs and menus, which gave me a head start. Well, I guess I spent a few hours in Germany, but that was just the airport, which was not very stressful language-wise.
Thoughts? Reviews? Recommendations?
