It's not two-twenty-one.

Another excursion for us, this time yesterday with a French friend to Novi Sad, a city 70 kms. to the north of Belgrade, where my husband grew up. This clock, located on Novi Sad's famous fortress, Petrovaradin, shows the time, but not the time you might think it is. It was actually 4:15. The reason is not a mistake, but rather the long hand was purposedly made to show the hour to ships passing on the Danube below. It was more important, I guess, for them to know the hour, not necessarily the minutes!
