ABC WEDNESDAY--"U" is for "unequaled'

Both are pretty much unequaled (or unequalled, if you're British).  Novak Djokovic, the tennis champ, and Nikola Tesla, the 'electric' champ.

And I guess Spiderman is pretty unequaled, too; not sure about Peppa Pig on the left.

THEME DAY--shop window

Here you go. I love this eyeglass shop, since they have the most creative displays. You might remember this poster on their door from a few years back.

Pea? What pea?

This cat looked so comfortable that he or she couldn't possibly feel even a pea below all those pillows.

SHADOW SHOT SUNDAY--the bench

I just loved the early-morning light on this bench.

Sweeping

A seemingly unending task.  He's doing it the old-fashioned way, with no leaf blower. I hate those things.

SKYWATCH--the seagull

An early morning flight over the Sava River in New Belgrade.

HAPPY THANKSGIVING

An assortment of some very tasty brandies and wines for your Thanksgiving table....

ABC WEDNESDAY--"T" is for "trompe l'oeil"

"Trompe l'oeil" indeed, since if you walk right in, you'll bang your nose.

Masha and the Bear

The Russian cartoon, Masha and the Bear, is tremendously popular here.  My granddaughter adores it, and has a Masha doll and the Bear. To quote Wikipedia:

"Masha is depicted as a precocious, happy, kind, and mischievous little girl, while the bear is a fatherly retired circus performer that tries to keep Masha out of trouble but often ends up the unintended victim of her mischief. There are a number of supporting characters in the series, including Masha's cousin, a penguin adopted by the Bear, a young panda cub who is the Bear's cousin, a tiger that worked with the bear in the circus, and a female bear that is the object of the bear's affections, along with a rabbit, squirrels and hedgehogs, two wolves who live near the bear's house, and a pig, goat, and dog who live in Masha's front yard."

MONDAY MURAL--Tea Time!

It was a coffee pot yesterday, now it's tea time.

This mural is so cheerful that even if you didn't want any tea to begin with, you feel like a cup.

See other murals on Monday Murals.

SHADOW SHOT SUNDAY--Turkish coffee

Not much of a shadow, but it's there.  Two Turkish džezve against a typical Pirot rug.  Remember, Serbia was under Turkish rule for 500 years...
