Holidays

Thanks I'll look forward to exploring your channel and especially the 2 German cities when you do them. Absolutely loved Dubrovnik. Phenomenal old town easily navigated, public transport outside the old town seemed easy and cheap. We were let down by the food sadly, one establishment owner said that most independent food places had sold up or moved out.
If you're getting off a cruise and want dozens of restaurants that are fake Italian trattorias the you're good. Menu after menu had steak, pasta, seafood and most of all pizza. Difficult to get to try Croatian food at all, which for us is sort of one of the main points of travelling.
Found a couple of places in the old town and a couple outside - however thought it was a bit pricey. I'm assured that it's the cruise ship influence and the farther away you go the more traditional it is and with better prices!
Might look at Zagreb for a different experience next time.
Some Game of Thrones stuff filmed in the old town so if your daughters are fans they'll love it!

Ha ha. We are basic when it comes to food requirements - steak, pasta and pizza is mostly what we eat when abroad. We've eaten pizzas in cities all over Europe. Most of the best pizza places are in Spain!

I've watched GOT but the girls haven't. Seen plenty of places in Seville and Girona where some of it was filmed. I'm sure they'll love it in Dubrovnik, it does like nice.

I remember travelling to Girona for an away jolly. It wasn't Girona but some team a few clicks on the outskirts that City owned and the ground was covered in scaffolding. Anyone???

Anyway we crossed the bridge over the Onyar river and was greeted by the grand spectacle of the cathedral steps where Cersei had to do her walk of atonement (shame) from.

When I was there, it was one of those places where I thought, now, where's my slinky spring?!

In terms of the football, that sounds like Girona's ground!

Think it was. Remember it being a good few miles outside the City centre. Just asked Jeeves and he said 2017 and we lost 1.0. Stadium was all held together with scaffolding poles. Must have come into a few bob and having a refurb.
 
Going to Dalyan on the Dalaman Coast in Türkiye. Hoping to see some Turtles in the wild and enjoy some river walks. Anyone been before? Going end of May and start of June. Thanks

Haha, there’s a set of steps in Dubrovnik where the walk of shame was filmed!! Or so they said when we were there . I’ll find a picture.

No worries - we also went to Cologne and Munich last year. Cologne was a 1-nighter - it was a nice trip to see the cathedral and stuff along the Rhine. Videos for both cities are clogged up in our video backlog!

Cadiz is on our list, we'll probably do it as a day-trip on a future return trip to Seville.

My daughters have got Dubrovnik booked for October.

As you said Berlin is a great city, preferred the old Eastern side but generally it's great to get around. Also went to Leipzig and Dresden - the monument to the battle of the nations in Leipzig is well worth a visit and the Dynamo Dresden fans are fanatical and though small the stadium is an experience
