Belgrade Serbia

Taking this picture gave me an idea. The next time you see a stranger sleeping with their camera nearby, take a picture of them and quietly sneak away.



Steve the Brit


Coming into Belgrade on the bus.


We arrived on warm Saturday afternoon so there were plenty of people out and about.


A lot of good street performers too.


We headed to the City Park that was once a fortress and now also has a zoo. Clearly fortresses were really in back in the day. I see them making a comeback.


Yet again more men playing chess.


A relaxing spot to watch the sunset over the Danube and suck down a cigarette.


The fortress guard dog.


I don't know if it was the sleep deprivation from the night before, but I felt like I was on cloud nine here. The people were all very mellow and enjoyable and the city had a very warm feeling to it.



My attempt at an artistic shot.





This guy was providing a great soundtrack as the sun was setting.


The Pobednik (The Victor) is a monument in the Kalemegdan Fortress was erected after World War I to commemorate the first Allied victory of the war, the defeat of the Austro-Hungarian Empire.


The confluence of the Danube and the Sava Rivers.


Rock climbing the walls.


Steve working on his Crane style.


This entrance to the fortress was also part of the military museum. They had every kind of tank or canon they had ever used on display.



Heading for the sunset.





Great Day!


Back for a stroll on the pedestrian mall.


Day 2: Morning fog over the bridge.


Sunday fishing


I seriously doubt Kevin Costner has ever flown Turkish Airlines....well at least not regularly enough to put that smug look on a billboard.





Did you here....Backstreets back......ALRIGHT!


Next stop Budapest Hungary.
