and it’s already time to go

The in-house painter drew our faces on his tablet and Mako revealed errors at Mama. Tasty spinach burek were sold at a small shop packed with workers and consumers and happiness.

Zagreb airport was as efficient as Beograd airport. We are still not sure how to pay for the shuttle from Luton airport. London is as Londonie as I imagined from movies but much bigger than my expectation.

Are we going to wake up in the village?

and we are back in Zagreb

Our toes were frozen again today in Zagreb. centarThe elevator gondola made the people inside look like they are walking down the stairs while pretending to be on an escalator. The pastry shops had many dense and tasty items and there were many pastry shops.

The sock selection seems to be quite excellent over here.

now let’s sleep on a train

sleepcarBeograd airport seemed very efficient.  The vegetarian swedish table was worth missing a train to Zagreb. Mixing yogurt with 100% raspberry juice in apple juice helped us maintain our enthusiam for yogurt even after consuming 3L  in one day.  We successuly defended our room on the train by standing and making it look more crowded than it actually was. Having the exit and entry passport checkpoints right next to each other is such an unfamiliar experience.

Zagreb at 5:30AM was more lively than Boston.

and we finished our road trip

Budapest is closer to Zagreb than Beograd. Hawks like to hang out on a fence by the highway by fields in Austria, Croatia, and Serbia. Modified Cyrillic and Latin letters start appearing on highway signs. 

Finding a parking spot is tricky in Beograd. Two layers of socks are to be worn tomorrow.
