Day3 🇭🇷 part “Croatia - Zagreb”

Today we woke up in Belgrade, Serbia, a bit later than the rest of the days!
After getting our bags to the car, we decided we would walk into town to have a look around and grab something for breakfast. We had a coffee and a cookie each and walked into some shops. We came across a small “market” with second hand things and artists that made all sorts of decorative items - Lampros found a stand with old passports and documents from the Soviet Union / Yugoslavia period and was fascinated by them. The temperature was fantastic comparing with yesterday and we really enjoyed our morning walk. We also wanted to see the old fortress “Kalemegdan”, which overlooks the Sava and Danube rivers, so we walked into there too. There’s a park, the zoo and a lot of towers and monuments. After walking around a bit, we decided we would head back to the car and start our drive to Zagreb, Croatia. Before the drive we had one last Pljeskavica (the traditional food we had yesterday too). The place we stopped was fantastic, the best out of the three we tried. I drove for the majority of the journey (about 2.30 hours), but got tired on the last hour so Lampros continued for us. I then proceeded to fall asleep in the passenger seat up until 2 minutes before we arrived to the place we are staying at in Zagreb. We parked the car at the hotel’s space, walked up to the room to leave our bags and straight away went out for a walk around the city. The time was 19:00 and there were a lot of people out which took us by surprise (Belgrade and Skopje were not as busy as Zagreb). We visited the Croatian National theatre, Zagreb cathedral, the St. Mark cathedral and then the museum of broken relationships (we both went in - I stayed in there for 1 hour and Lampros for 1 minute, maybe 2). This museum has items of relationships that didn’t work and a description next to it explaining the meaning behind it. Some stories were actually very emotional and it wasn’t only boyfriend/girlfriend material. Lampros waited patiently for me to finish and then we went and grabbed some noodles cause we were hungry. Showers, rest and the rest tomorrow!Read more
