Finally I can use this! I took this photo last winter with the full intention of posting it during a hot spell, which we have been having! I'll bet these folks wish their air conditioner were still this cold!
I've always noticed that when people have a country house here, they often opt to have plaster lions (white, but sometimes gold....) on the tops of the gate posts on either side of the entrance to their garden. While in a nearby country town the other weekend, I came upon these plaster dogs! Though they're most likely Saint Bernards, I thought they looked a bit like Bibi, so I immortalized her here with one. Borrowed my son's hands again, like I did here.
I have passed this fountain many times in Tasmajdan Park, but never when the water was flowing. I couldn't help but think that this pregnant statue might want to be rushing (pun intended) to the hospital...
This fellow reminded me of the Joni Mitchell song "Real Good for Free," as he sat entertaining passers-by on Belgrade's pedestrian street, Knez Mihailova. Actually, I imagine he's hoping someone would give him something, but like the man reflected in the glass, many did just pass him by.
Well, who would ever think you could find such pastoral beauty in the very center of Belgrade? Well, you can! Or sort of... This lady at a bus stop was seated in front of a Milka chocolate ad, which reads (on the photo below) "One little bite and you're there!" For those of you not familiar with Milka chocolate, it is positively addictive....smooth, creamy, and not too sweet. My favorite is the one without anything in it, no nuts, no raisins.... I took this shot from my car. Can you find me in the photo below? (and yes, I erased part of the text in t he top photo to fool you...!)
Here we go with my red fetish again. These shoes looked so snazzy. I was going to crop the image, but the girl's attire only enhances her feet in these pretty shoes.
