October 7: Dubrovnik

The day brought in the wind called Bora. It is a northern to north-eastern katabatic wind (a wind that carries high density air from a higher elevation down a slope under the force of gravity) in the Adriatic, Croatia, Montenegro, Italy, Bulgaria, Greece and Slovenia that brings with it the cold air and rain that can chill one to the bone. While determined to not let the wind dictate the day, it was up the cable car to see the city from above. With winds gusting to high speeds this venture was short lived, but worthwhile!
