BLACK AND WHITE WEEKEND--in the tub

 My youngest grandson is a charmer and a ham.  Isn't it obvious?  :>)

SKYWATCH--on top of Kalemegdan Park

 Just off to the right stands the statue of The Victor that I have shown you many times before.  The building visible is now the building for The Protection of Monuments in Kalemegdan.

ONE OF MANY GATES

Just a photo of one of the many smaller gates that lead down into lower Kalemegdan toward New Belgrade across the river.
 

POLITIKA NEWSPAPER

 Politika news paper is Belgrade's oldest newspaper. The company was founded in 1904 by journalist Vladislav Ribikar and its first edition appeared on January 25th of that year.  It is still in circulation today.

The bottom photo shows you the original building where you can just about (in this photo) make out the word Politika, and the top one, is the building to its left that houses the newspaper offices today.

TWO FLAGS

 The top flag is the Serbian flag, flying proudly over the Serbian Academy of Arts.  The one with the red star is the Yugoslav flag, which flew over Yugoslavia from 1918 to 1992 until the country broke apart. 

Somebody still wishes it were together, I guess!

MONDAY MURALS--Under the Old Railway Bridge

 Just what the title says.  The old railroad station is not being used anymore, but the bridge still carries trams and cars. The area below the bridge along the Sava River is becoming posh. The area is not finished, if such a thing ever is, but is a constant challenge for muralists.

SKYWATCH--waiting for the sunset

 A woman (a Muslim by her dress) stares across the river toward New Belgrade, awaiting the sunset.

IT'S MELTING

 Our snow is melting, but it may be back in February. Here's a happy little (and slim) snowman spotted today near the monument Pour la France in Kalemegdan park.

IT'S COLD

 It's been cold....obvious from this icicle....

MONDAY MURALS--Mr. and Mrs. TomatoHead...and a cat

 Like many murals around town, this one just appeared over night in a passage not far from me.

No idea what the tomato head means!

MONDAY MURALS.

WEEKEND IN BLACK AND WHITE: the balcony

 I think balconies like this beautifully detailed one are magnificent. They most likely bring more pleasure to the passers-by than to those who live there, but maybe not.
