Ragusa Travel Journal

I stayed in the newer part of Ragusa, left my rental car at the hotel, and walked everywhere. That worked out well because the old town is not particularly car-friendly, which is part of its charm. Then again, I’m not car-friendly either, but I’m not charming. You never can tell about these things.
