In Belgrade you can still find lots of streets paved with cobblestones. Unfortunately, most of them are are also lined with cars, which often park half-way or more on the sidewalk as in this photo. This kitty posed perfectly for me under a sign advertising a doctor's office. On the wall on the left someone has spray-painted a hammer and sickle. Although Yugoslavia (and the names that followed!) was never under the rule of the Soviet Union, socialists/communists were in power for a long time until the fall of Milosevic. Perhaps this person would like a return? Some think he may get his wish in the upcoming parliamentary elections....

Oh boy, your elections bring to mind some scenes we saw on television of Milosevic's last days.
I do like the cobblestone street and the cat looking at you. What a lovely scene.
