Tourist Tom thrills with Croatian surprise

Tom Cruise thrilled fans in Dubrovnik, Croatia, over the Labor Day weekend by spending time site-seeing in the ancient city.
The movie star took some rare time off after cancelling plans to premiere his new movie Collateral in Moscow, Russia, out of sensitivity to last week's hostage crisis in Beslan, which left hundreds dead.
And he used his downtime to visit one of his favourite cities.
When he was spotted by a local journalist and asked about his reasons for being in Dubrovnik, Cruise said he found the city "fascinating" and insisted: "I'll certainly be back."
Cruise was accompanied by his mother and took the opportunity to visit Croatia two days after promoting Collateral at the Venice film festival.
