Maybe this fellow did too much stomping, like the poster behind him advertises.
You've seen a few things happening in and around this fountain before.
Impressions of Belgrade and Serbia and maybe photos from an in-country trip by a long-term ex-pat.

SUNDAY BRIDGES--vertical....
Lots of verticals here, among which are the spire from Belgrade's newest bridge, the Bridge on Ada, and in the foreground, the old Nazi concentration camp watchtower that stands on Belgrade's Old Fairgrounds. The dilapidated buildings of the former camp are now home to Serbian refugees from the wars across the former Yugoslavia.
See more bridges at Louis La Vache's SUNDAY BRIDGES.

Plums=fresh, jam, juice, dumplings, brandy.....
Plums are Serbia's pride and joy. Aside from being eaten right off the tree (I like mine crisp and slightly sour), they're made into juice, jam, dumplings like these I've shown you before, and of course, plum brandy.
The happy plum in the second photo is my doing. That's what you do without Internet in the village where these were photographed.
How do you like your plums?

SUNDAY BRIDGES--sleeping.....
End of summer...but not for some backpackers who chose to sleep in Kalemegdan Park, as did some others before them.
Branko's Bridge and the old Savski Bridge are in the background, as is the tower of Belgrade's newest bridge, the Bridge On Ada, just right of center in the distance.
It's been a long, hot summer... Let's see what lies ahead.
Check out other bridges on Louis La Vache's Sunday Bridges.

THEME DAY--people watching: No GPS
Remember the days before GPS when you actually had to stop and ask people for directions? I've used a GPS on a trip from Seattle through California a year or so ago, and while it was easy to get from Point A to Point B by myself, the GPS was really handy in a city.
But here in Serbia GPSs exist, but I don't have one, so I have to stop and ask for directions. This fellow in a village outside of Belgrade was all too happy to explain to me the route I should take. And of course I sneaked a photo of him...camera on lap.
