Buy your own luck in Belgrade. Sunday Special! 

Just a few souvenirs at BašČaršija

Build it and they will come.

Even better, even older, eh?

Gračanica Monastery (click for Wikipedia info)…

…and the road that leads there:

More about the trip to follow shortly… continuing with a few bird shots.

Še pomnite čase, ko smo bili vsi milijonarji? Nostalgija ni prehuda 🙂

A coffee shop spotted in Krujë (Albania), the hometown of Albania’s national hero Skanderbeg.

Speaking of the man:

Saw a replica of the above statue in Priština (Kosovo) while the one in Tirana was slightly different.

Hello my friends… we’re back and still very much alive and kicking after the road trip through ex Yugoslav republics. Back to a different kind of reality though the one we experienced during the trip was no less real. A detailed report will hopefully follow at some time, but seeing as in the Quiet dr. Fil post the correct answer was ‘all of the above’, it may take a little while. I’m moving to another country next week, but definitely plan on keeping in touch here.

The first stop of the YugaTrip was Belgrade and the House of Flowers was one of the sights to visit, of course. Here are a couple of photos from there:

Just sharing a few photos. Hope you enjoy. I may not have run into these guys, but can’t say I mind. My views were much better than that 😈

Tread with care!

So delicate yet so resilient.

I’d never seen these before and found them absolutely stunning. Can anyone help identify them?

Ever wondered what the view from the Top is like? The above may help answer your question, at least as far as the view from the top of Slovenia goes. Shot taken from the inside of Aljaž Tower at the top of Mount Triglav, the highest peak in Slovenia at 2864m.

Plenty… and I do mean plenty more photos on camera. Should I go ahead and bore you with more? 😉

Today, over lunch, my favourite New Yorker claimed I posted far too few photos from the Dominican Republic. So let me try to make it up to you guys. For starters, this is Jose who kindly introduced me to the “really” fresh coconuts… one to drink from and another to enjoy the delicious taste of the… fruit? Yumm… Thanks, Jose!
