Dubrovnik: Arrive early or late to best enjoy Croatia's 'Pearl of the Adriatic'

Dubrovnik’s imposing and impressive walls are its marquee monument. It costs a pricey 70 HRK (about $12.60) to walk along them, but the views looking down over locals going about their day beneath vermilion roofs and limestone towers is worth the price. Getting up to the battlements early or late in the day avoids both the crowds, and, in summer, the unremitting heat.

Pacific After Hours

After Hours: Sea snake on menu at Okinawa restaurant

After Hours: 50s Cafe on Okinawa full of nostalgia

Picture yourself transported back in time to the land of black-and-white TV, rotary-dial phones, drive-ins, big burgers, big cars and Buddy Holly tunes on the car’s AM radio. Or at least onto the set of Arnold’s drive-in on “Happy Days” or the Frosty Palace in the movie “Grease.”
