EACH TO HIS OWN

 This elaborate home is located in an older section of building, but is  not old itself. It stands on Mica Popovic street and is allegedly owned by some politician who somehow got a permit to  build such a monstrosity.

But, each to his own. Behind it rises a modern structure.

For you info, MICA POPOVIC was  a very successful painter and film maker.

MONDAY MURALS---Nikola Tesla

 While darting through a dark passage, I came upon this mural of  NIKOLA TESLA, Serbian-American mechanical and electrical engineer, and futurist.

SKYWATCH--LOOK! AN AIRPLANE!

 For sure this fellow has more compelling comments than "Look! An airplane!" to relate to his date.

GOING HOME AFTER THE MOSQUE

 Making their way home from the mosque. (The sign reads Vishnjichev Passage, and is the entrance to a building on Vishnjicka Street.)

NO BENCH TO SIT ON, SO...

 ...so he found himself a nice cool place on the lawn.  And he's READING, not looking at his phone, rare sight these days.

BUBBLES, BUBBLES

I seriously love bubbles. I sometimes  buy a plastic container of bubble liquid and sit outside and blow bubbles.  It is so relaxing.  I get a lot of stares, but have met some fun people, adults and children, and dogs that way.

MONDAY MURALS--Coffee, anyone?

 Many of us are coffee drinkers. Some like their coffee weak, some strong,  some decaffeinated, some with cream and sugar.

Not sure what  this girl is offering, but given her size, there's a lot of  coffee in that cup.

WEEKEND REFLECTIONS--pretty, but not good

 Had coffee with a friend the other morning in a new place.  Really pretty red cups and presentation, but the coffee left a lot to be desired...

SKYWATCH--empty streets

 This photo was taken on May 1st, International Workers' Day. Not a soul around; all off for a long holiday combined with Serbian Orthodox Easter, which preceded this holiday.

MORE STREET MUSICIANS

 More street musicians today, but  not as cheerful as Josip was in yesterday's post!

 Say hello to Josip, a super cheerful musician in Kalemegdan Park.
