WEEKEND REFLECTIONS---oriental pastries
I was good. So good. I did not give in to buying any of these super-sweet pastries on one of Belgrade's oldest streets, Balkanska Ulica.
Instead, I decided to take them all home with me, digitally.

SKYWATCH---the bat
On my recent trip to Belgrade's old brick factory, now a place where unconventional artists set up shop, I ran face-to-face with this large bat..... I think he's rather cute. Big, too. I could stand under his wings.

Chillin' in the underground passage
Belgrade has a few underground corridors that run under major streets. There are shops and stands in them, but most of these passageways look downright tacky.
Someone decided just to have a little rest.

ABC WEDNESDAY--"T" is for "teenager"
A teenager, she is, but in dog years she's much older. Today my sweet little Bibi and my blog nickname turns 14!
I've had her ever since she was ten months old, when I adopted her from Katya, who no longer has as many dogs in this photo, thanks to a lot of friends. I adopted Bibi when she was no quite one, with the intention of finding a home for her.....and I did. See other Ts on Mrs. Nesbitt's ABC WEDNESDAY.

Looking down
I caught this elderly man from quite a distance away as he watched the traffic and pedestrians go by on Belgrade's Kraljica Natalija (Queen Nathalie) Street.
Below is a full view where you can see newer buildings going up in the distance.

SKYWATCH--between storms
This is a phone photo that turned out pretty well. These clouds formed between two big, booming storms the other day.

ABC WEDNESDAY--"S" is for "Signs"
The alternate title for this is "urban and natural colors," since there are reds and greens on two of the signs, too....

Not so ferocious....
Not so ferocious, but definitely wanting out. Someone took the trouble so this pooch wouldn't get cut on the broken glass.
I did hear his friend rumbling in the background....

A sweeping display
Eye-catching too, along with being a sweeping display.... These brooms hang over a cafe in BELGRADE DESIGN DISTRICT. This site is in Serbian, but if you wish, you can see what's going on by looking up BELGRADE DESIGN DISTRICT on Facebook.
