Around Zagreb

We spent time during the afternoon/evening checking out the many attractions of Zagreb including the tram system, beautiful downtown parks and statues, an array of architecturally beautiful buildings and of course a street that contained very little else except bar after bar after bar. It amazes me how people can make a choice of where to spend their money.

The experience we had earlier in the day with our hotel search caused us to call into an internet café and book ahead for Split and Dubrovnik. We have secured rooms in private homes - hostel type accommodation where you share facilities – should be interesting.

We could see from the many posters around the town there was a lot on over the summer.

Zagreb was completely new to me so I don’t know why I should be amazed by it but I was. I feel so much more informed now that I have been there. I now have a context for whatever else I may come to learn about the city.

Although we didn't have to use it the tram system looked easy to use.
