People asked us: "Why Serbia?"

We think that after looking at some images from our trip...you'll see why!

An open air concert in Belgrade as the clock clicked down!

Jan. 1...on the street of open hearts.

The cathedral just up the street from our hostel.

Air conditioned train! ...in winter. (-6 Cel)

My face says it all! As we had our first taste of Lepinja...it was an experience. Please don't check my cholesterol after eating it.

At home in our little house on the prairie. (Rebnica near Zlatibor)

"Sarma": Cabbage rolls filled with minced meat and rice and....?? was really good... but again - our cholesterol was happy ;-))

Two poker-faces

"Schitour" through the woods ... with lots of rocks ;-)

...But it was beautiful!

Alex was not so happy for a while, when she had to carry her skies up a steep hill...

(Nate:"I'm sure, there is a road or trail!")

But finally, we made it up to the top!

The ski-area nearby: Tornik (one slope was open, there was not enough snow)

The herb-man in Zlatibor - known for his teas....

the only problem was that he didn't speak English or German and we are not soooo fluent in Serbian....yet... (even if Nate thinks so...)

A yummy Palačinke with chocolate, coconut, and whipped cream!!

Walking home to our little cabin in the woods...

Back in Belgrade

Coffee in an old fortresse

The train left @ 5.15 in the morning... 17 hours to go home....
