Roll out the red carpet

Nothing like a coffee or drink in the park in style. This piece of red carpet was undoubtedly placed there by the security guards at one end of Kalemegdan Park.  The two mugs, too....

WEEKEND REFLECTIONS--tiny blue tutu

I always pass this little ballet shop on my way to a friend's house.  I think this is their tiniest tutu.

SKYWATCH--Beer Fest

The BELGRADE BEER FEST started on the 13th, drawing visitors from not just Serbia and Belgrade, but from pretty much all over.  Not my kind of place to  hang out, but I caught these two overlooking the festival itself from a Kalemegdan wall.

Wasteful


I read online that ICEBOX's ice cream and frozen yogurt are really good, I sure wish they could think of a better package.  Yes, I get the part about the 'box', but it's all so eco-unfriendly.  Unless of course you're an ant and appreciate licking the cup.

I haven't tried their product, and maybe I will.  I keep seeing their packaging all over the place, unfortunately.

ABC WEDNESDAY "E" is for "evolution"

Well, sometimes I hit just the right photo for ABC WEDNESDAY.  Couldn't resist this one for 'evolution'.

I had heard there was very little difference in our DNA make-up and that of chimps. There's for sure some sort of resemblance between Sami, a now-deceased, long-time resident of Belgrade's zoo, and one of the zoo's caretakers.

They don't make them like this anymore...

How many times have you heard (usually older) people say, "They don't make 'em like this anymore?"

Well, it's true for some things, like this old gate. Now gates are more often all shiny, rust-proof, and streamlined.

I love the story that this gate tells.

WEEKEND REFLECTIONS--in the rain out my window

I don't want to see rain anymore, especially with my major roof problems....rain, rain, go away...
