Fighters
I tried to find information about this statue downtown in a passage, but to no avail. It seems to be depicting Serbs fighting their enemies at different times in history.

You've got mail!
If you do, you'd better make sure your mailbox has a door...otherwise your mail might be up for grabs.
Spotted in an old passageway downtown.

Rooftop view?
A friend and I had heard about a cafe on the roof of one of Belgrade's auditoriums downtown, so up we went.

SKYWATCH--riverboat
It's gettin' on to summer. This riverboat usually transports tourists, but it doesn't seem to have any passengers.

ABC WEDNESDAY 'W' is for 'Weight of the World'
These three fellow have been spiffed up since I last posted them in 2009. The Jugoexport sign is also gone, since the building was sold for an exorbitant price you'll see if you click on my link.

WEEKEND REFLECTIONS--Hotel Constantine
It is true that Belgrade is attracting more and more tourists, and it seems that there's always a hotel going up. This one is just around the corner from where I live, and indeed, there's one going up across the street from me as well....

No surprise to tell you it has been darn hot here--high 90s, slipping into 100s from time to time. I indulge in melons, all kinds, from wat...
