Impressions of Belgrade and Serbia and maybe photos from an in-country trip by a long-term ex-pat.

SHADOW SHOT--the blue parasol
I am now in Seattle where I had expected rain, but haven't seen it yet. Serbia is undergoing heavy flooding, the worst in 120 years.
Though the Sava river here appears muddy where it joins the Danube, indicating rains upstream, the day I took this photo about two weeks ago was sunny, and this umbrella was used as a parasol.

"Hejt" No More
Serbian is a phonetic language and 'j' is pronounced as a 'yuh', so 'hejt' is pronounced 'hate'. Not sure if this was an accidental misspelling, or if 'hejt' refers to something else...dunno what.
No haiku for a while. I am physically now in the US, but in cyberspace I'll be in Belgrade for another week! Just to get over jet-lag....then photos of Seattle.

ABC WEDNESDAY--"R" is for (Dusko) Radovic
Dusko Radovic was a children's writer, journalist, poet and aphorist, and I remember him fondly. He died in 1984, and this is a photo of his newly-renovated children's theater, with St. Marko' Cathedral behind it.
See other Rs on Mrs. Nesbitt's ABC WEDNESDAY. Sorry---no haiku.

One sits, one gazes
Wall art and street sitter.
Daily Haiku
Two street artists
One forms his thoughts on paper
One in his mind’s eye

The squirrel from hell
A man was feeding this squirrel the other day in the park, and some others were taking photos. I joined in. From my angle he appeared a bit dark, so I used the flash....with this result. I was going to correct the squirrel's hellish eyes, but then I remembered this post.
Daily Haiku
Gray bristly tail and ears
Nuts over nuts he chatters
My friend the squirrel

Shadow Shot Sunday Students' Park sidewalk
Shadows cast by wall decorations and through grillwork in the walls surrounding Students' Park in Belgrade.
See other shadows on Shadow Shot Sunday.
You can see these wall ornaments here and the grillwork here.

Shadows are reborn
When the sun sinks they rise and
Lie cool in moonlight
