Got to the Zagreb Youth Hostel about 4.30 Friday, having waited for bus in Ljubljana (coming from Munich) which was an hour behind schedule, and after a bit of excitement at the border where we crossed into Croatia but some Asians were not allowed across for some reason, so the bus did a U turn and dropped them off back in Slovenia and then returned through border controls and we were on our way again. The border flags are here to show the totally calm conditions but you have to imagine the temperature, well into the mid30s. Hard for those in NZ to contemplate just now.
What did we see of Zagreb in the rest of that day...
Well there must be giants around although we only saw their chair ..
And nice bright shiny blue, but old fashioned looking, trams by the hundred...
And folk music and dancing as part of a week-long festival (not, as we thought maybe, laid on especially for us)
And usefully engraved on the pavement, our location!
We have the day here now before another long distance bus. Who knows what time that will arrive!
