<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Bifter, post: 1090332, member: 28948&quot;]That looks like Dubrovnik on the reverse of that note. My wife and I visited Croatia on holiday a few years back but we were in the North (Istria), we both quite fancied a trip to Dubrovnik or Split but it was a bit more exclusive/expensive. I seem to recall Yugoslavia being open for tourism even in the communist era and remember the (rubbish) cars they used to sell into the West, they seemed to have more of a market economy than most Eastern bloc countries.</p><p><br /></p><p>You may have heard of the Stalin quote, something along the lines of &quot;I shall wave my little finger and there will be no more Tito&quot; but there was quite a good one from Tito to Stalin rebuking him for his failed assassination attempts:</p><p><br /></p><p>&quot;Stop sending people to kill me. We&#039;ve already captured five of them, one&nbsp; of them with a bomb and another with a rifle (...) If you don&#039;t stop&nbsp; sending killers, I&#039;ll send one to Moscow, and I won&#039;t have to send a&nbsp; second.&quot;[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
