Moving On

Ok. Forget about Paris. You'll see those pictures someday, but for now, there are just too many and the task of picking which ones to load and then loading them has proved far too daunting. Instead, meet our friend Stuart. See when we were in Hvar, Croatia a few months back, we met this Aussie. He was all, "How you goin'?" and Nata was all like, "Huh? I don't understand you!" (See "Croatian Vacation Pt. 2" if you have a short memory...)

Anywho, we wound up camping with this guy and since he was traveling all around the world, we invited him to come hang in Beograd if he gets the chance. So yeah, here are the pics from that adventure.


Our Australian, Stuart.

This is a jazz bar we went to one night. That bigger guy on the left is the owner and he could play a comb just like a saxophone!


The cat that lived at Stuart's aptly named hostel, Three Black Cats

Triumphant in the rain.


Bizarre things were happening at this place...

It was nice to get some guy time (and what I really mean by that is time with someone whose native language is English...)

Dancin' crazy like at Borence.

Our nightcap of choice was pizza...

...While Stuart preferred a sweet palacinka

He saw this in Novi Sad and we put it up just to dig at all you "Facers" out there.

And so we bid Stuart safe travels on his way to the Middle East. First major stop for him: Iran! Be safe, friend. And good luck with a month of sobriety in the dessert!!

We interrupt this blog....

To bring you an important weather update: The first snow has fallen in Belgrade!!! It snowed all day and is still going strong at 6:30 in the evening. Here, take a look:



A snow covered garden...


..."Kad padne prvi sneg"...

Those are collard greens, or rastan, there below the tree. Vesna says it's better after it freezes and then thaws again.

Speaking of Vesna, she just celebrated her birthday last night. Srecan rodjendan, Vesna!!

And Nata and David just sat by the heater (there on the right) all day and drank coffee of the Turkish variety!
