More Croatia and Please, No More Nightmares!!











PICS: Here's what the photographers in Croatia were filming....apparently, they were getting a "shot" of this street...for use in some type of media.

A Dubrovnik Bridge, near where our boat was parked.

The "Spanish Steps" replica that I mentioned earlier that was modeled after "The Spanish Steps" in Rome, Italy...There is a pic of the church at the top of the steps in the previous entry.

Have had too many nightmare dreams about work....one about Yvette, the other about Lomita do they want to sell or not, plus the next store neighbor is asking me out, plus was getting ready for this trip, too much!


Have had another regal scare and Thank God it’s not true.....I overheard someone at breakfast this morning talking about a 6.2 Earthquake and I thought that they said it was in California....I couldn’t relax.....I kept thinking and wondering and going, OMG, what if I’m really an orphan now? My freaking out took over and I pretty much immediately went over to one of the two who were talking and asked.....the nice man, who told me the better news, said it was in Hawaii, and that there was no tsunami or tornadoes or anything and that nobody was hurt. Feeewwweeee!!

After that scare, I had planned to come back to my cabin/stateroom and sleep, but now that is not going to happen. Think I’ll finish a few things up here, then head out to the internet cafe and get my web stuff done for now....I want to email my family photos from yesterday in Dubrovnik...I had already sent Venezia’s so don’t have that to do. I also did a collage of Dubrovnik, which I will try to put on my blog....it’s easier than having a million photos to download, you understand. It’s just one with a few, just a bit harder to see....who really goes through downloading all of them anyway? LOL

I had kind of fantasized about an interesting coincidence, that I would run into one of my clients, PD, and looks like she’s not on this cruise. We had talked about here coming out here back in July, and I was thinking, once I was ready to leave, wouldn’t it be fun....however, didn’t work out that way.

Oh, just thought I should keep a log, or copy my trip into the text on my blog, so you could click on each port that you may find interesting....what a great idea. Hope it works...sometimes when I try to copy stuff directly into the text portion of my blog, it doesn’t work...then i either have to do it the "long way" or not do it at all.

Checked with a client before I left, and let them know that my sister, Yvette, would be looking for a property for them.....and they told me that they "know how the market is right now" and I thought to myself, this sounds jaded or dangerous or like they don’t exactly "know" how the market is right now.

Unless the markets changed while I’m here, it’s still A GREAT REAL ESTATE MARKET. When was the last time you could sell your home for as much as you can sell it for right now? Not list it, because anyone can list for whatever they want, but actually sell it. Ok, then, I rest my case.

Well, think I’m going to go up and email my family...I’m still too anxious, even though I took half a sleeping pill around 5am.....that will teach me to not workout after 6pm like I did last night! Ciao Ciao~~Toddy
