Bye Bye Belgrade.


I cannot believe it is already our last day here in Belgrade. I have to admit on the first day I was very leery about the trip. Belgrade was dead, and I was in a place where I couldn’t spend the weekend, now just two short weeks later I have started to grow fond of the city, despite the heat. On our last day we were given the freedom to explore the city and get some last souvenirs.

Marissa, Liz, and I decided to do our laundry, we found the laundry mat, dropped our clothes off, and then Marissa and I started our adventure.  We headed up the windy side streets in attempts to find the pedestrian walkway. Upon finding it we stopped at various kiosks looking at souvenirs and bartering for the lowest prices. After a few hours of shopping, we were exhausted, although our hotel was just a 20 minute walk from the shops we decided to try taking the tram, we thought that would be easy enough since there was a stop by our hotel, and the route on the sign, also denoted the stop. After 30 minutes we ended far outside the city, luckily there was a bus stop nearby. We managed to make it back safely, and now we had seen even more of the city.

We had a delicious dinner, packed our bags, and then enjoyed our last night in the beautiful city. 

(Last trip to Kalemegdan Fortress, so many fond memories)
