Leaving Zagreb Saturday 19 July

We are about to leave Zagreb Youth Hostel for a hopefully 11pm bus. Spent the day exploring old parts of Zagreb on foot ... Changing of the guard in St Marks Square where also are parliament buildings...


View across to Captol where is the cathedral with 2 towers, over the centuries much repair and earthquake damage etc....


... then we did a hop on hop off bus ride round the further away suburbs, mainly to be shown the amazing sporting facilities near the Sava river and lots of space for picnics and any sort of sport you might think of...


and lastly a hour or so inthe Zagreb museum which set out very well the whole story from Iron Age to about now.
 Well some might say that's just a door and so it is but some might reflect on there being doors and doors!

On way back passed a serious chess competition either just finishing or about to start..
