Have just had a really lovely evening. We drove up into the hills behind Dubrovnik to experience typical Croatian village life. This village called Osojmik was completely destroyed in the Serbian / Montenegro uprising and you will see a photo of me with my fingers in the bullet holes of a building. The hosts were delightful and showed us wonderful hospitality with live music, dancing and their idea of a barbecue. We started with grappa and figs, followed by home-cured bacon and tomatoes on skewers. Then pork (cooked like our hangi), salad and a sweet cake to finish. All of the food was produced on their little farm, including a very smooth red wine. A delightful balmy evening and we ate at a long table outside.Herzegovina and Sarajevo tomorrow and probably no Wi-fi.
