Impressions of Belgrade and Serbia and maybe photos from an in-country trip by a long-term ex-pat.

CHEESEBOARDS!
Seen at the recent Balkan Cheese Festival. I think these are gorgeous. I don't need such a huge one, but I did buy a 'home-size' dark one like the second from the right. Very happy.

GOT LUCKY!
I won a selection of cheeses yesterday at the Balkan Cheese Festival here in Belrade. Over 200 locally-produced cheeses (France needn't be worried yet), 90% of which (my guess) were never around when I came here in 1977.
It's now Sunday morning and I still have some cheese left, haha.

THEME DAY--FIRE
No good fire photos, so here's the flame on my dog's first birthday pâté. She will be 6 in August.
March 1st...it seems to have come in 'like a lamb' not like a lion, so more winter lies ahead...but what is winter now anyway?
See more Fire Photos or at least Flames on CITY DAILY PHOTO THEME DAY.

HEELS
I'm afraid this shop is one of the last true shops of its kind. I can't remember the last time I needed this type of heel for my shoes.

STREET ACTION
Got off the bus on BRANKO'S BRIDGE, looked over the railing, and with my camera I froze all the action below.

ANTIQUE SHOP
I pass this antique shop quite often and have even sold a few things to them. To tell the truth, it isn't completely an antique shop anymore. It's been turned into a cozy cafe. Kind of an old-school feel....

SHARING
I watched this couple for quite a while. Each was engrossed in their phones....but then suddenly they shared something. A text, a photo, who knows? But it actually got them talking to each other....

PANORAMA FROM THE PARK
Weather permitting, I take my dog for a looong walk along the Danube in New Belgrade toward Old Belgrade. In this photo you can see, from left to right, Kalemegdan forteress, the steeple of the main church, the dome of the bishop's palace, waaay behind that the dome of St. Sava's temple, an old high-rise landmark, and the the far right, newly- constructed apartment buildings in an area called Belgrade Waterfront. In the foreground is a monument called The Eternal Flame.

SHUTTERS
Went through the old municipality of Zemun, which was once part of the Austro-Hungarian Empire. Lots of beautiful architecture.
