The whole Dubrovnik region awoke to a fresh blanket of white snow. And what to do when it snows – sledge of course! These children, and some bigger children, had fun sledging down a public street today. Dubrovnik is more used to baking hot temperatures in the mid thirties throughout the summer months, snow is rare.

So when you are more used to swimming in the Adriatic than speeding down a snow covered mountainside what do you use as a sledge – your mother’s baking tins of course. These children sped at breakneck speeds down this snow and ice covered road. Having fun in the Dubrovnik snow.

And if we are to believe the weather reports there is more snow on the way for Dubrovnik today, current temperatures are around 1 degree.
