Serbia Sightings
Ten passport stamps
Nine brand new countries
Eight overnight trains
Seven cookie packets
Six haribo wummies
Five kebab variations
Four ethnographic museums
Three more nights in hostels
Two bombed out buildings
And one more week on the road
Well we had quite the night when we tried to leave Bulgaria, the train inspectors decided that my ticket was fine but that there was a problem with Anna's, which is of course exactly the same. After about an hour of them telling us to pay five euros and us telling them we had no money the people in the next compartment got involved, as they spoke some English, and it was quickly resolved that we ad nothing to pay, the originial inspector took this with very bad grace but did leave us alone after that. We then got in about three hours late which meant that we missed our connection to Macedonia but luckily there was another one not too much later.
We're in Serbia now and spent the afternoon at a military museum, it was pretty interesting but I am sure that we missed quite a lot with our lack of Serbian, the English signs were about 1/4 of the size of the Serbian ones! Tomorrow we'll go the the Ethnographic museum and maybe the car museum, depending on time. Then it's off to Sarajevo.
