Last stop in the Balkans, leaving via Zagreb
Friday, October 21st, 2005Zagreb, and a couple of excursions to see fairytale castles and covered wooden bridges. Long amounts of time spent waiting at the roadside for infrequent buses – feels like we are back in South America.
Castle at Varazdin, north of Zagreb.
Trakoscan Castle, also north of Zagreb.

Funny thing with dinner. Went looking for the same restaurant we were in 3 years ago. Found a familiar one, but it was far too pricey – surely we didn’t eat there. Decided to visit the pizzeria next door. That was it, and that was the same process we went to finding it, three years ago, by rejecting the neighbouring overpriced establishment. Fairly certain we ordered the same dishes, as well.
