Nesh around The World

As promised here is an update with, finally, some pictures.
With today I would like to start posting pictures everyday; I know it could be a hard job, but who said it would be easy?
In each post I will also add a description, just to give the picture a clearer context. It is supposed to be some sort of photo-documentary of the places I go.
The posts will be shorter, but more frequent; hopefully my Internet connection will allow me to do so.

I start this project with my visit to the Ploče Gate (Vrata od Ploča), the Eastern entrance to the Old Town (Grad). It is very close to where I live and it is one of the two main entrances to the Grad.
In the past, the draw bridge was used to be pulled up at night to prevent the passage of ‘uninvited’ visitors.These entrances lead to,the Stradun (also called Placa, Stradone or Corso; due to its Venetian influences), the main street of the Grad.

While walking I also spot the nearby island, Lokrum; it seems quite nice and from what I have heard, it is definitely a place I am going to visit anytime soon.
I end this post with a picture of a dude surely enjoying his summer.
