Candy apples for New Year's Eve

Near Slavija Circle

I know it's kind of blurry, but I like the blue :)

Saint Sava and surrounding park

It was below freezing today


But it doesn't stop people from enjoying some fresh air in the park (note the guy using a laptop)

Snow on planters

In a small park

Snowfall on Republic Square

Republic Square


The snow removal trucks lined up just in front and to the side of the horse
(one is dumping out accumulated snow)


You missed a spot.

Well

So much for "daily" photo...I've really gotten off track, but I'm going to try to make an effort to get back on!

In Tasmajdan Park

More snow

Our Christmas tree

It's about 30 cm (12 inches) tall
Very easy to "take down" after the holidays :)

Just some buses. And people. And cars.

Some domestic escargot

Flaming Yugo

Look what we saw on Beogradska today!




To the rescue, sort of.

Real Squirrel, Not Real Water

I took this picture of squirrel today and tried out the flood filter from Flaming Pear (free trial) on it. I think it's *kewl*.

Ethnic Food Fair

Today was the last day of the second annual Ethnic Food Fair. It's purpose is to give domestic food manufacturers the opportunity to present their products to restaurants, hotels, shops, and also to the general public. There were lots of samples going around, ajvar, various kinds of cured meat, snails, kajmak, and there was even a macrobiotic food product manufacturer, and a juicer. Teas, cabbage products, local brandy (rakija) of course...


Here is a mob of students trying some samples of cured meat from Zlatibor (a mountain in Serbia). This stand was very popular.
