Hello Again,
This is our second full day in Belgrade. It is a really nice city. Everyone is very friendly here. Yesterday we walked around the city looking at old buildings and churchs. Then we spent most of the day in Kalemegdan a fortress. It was a really interesting place on the cornor of two rivers. Inside the fortress we toured a military museum and a museum with artifacts from the fortress. Last night we went to eat supper at a resturant for Jessea's birthday. We ate at the oldest resturant in Belgrade called ? It was good I had stuffed chicken and Jessea had lamb. Then we ate ice cream and went to an international folk festival. We watched several different countries dance in traditional costumes. It was very nice. We walked around looking at the night life of Belgrade and then went to sleep. Today 13th, We walked around some more and visited the largest orthadox cathedral in the world. It was started in 1935 and is actually still under construction today. We took a bus over the river to a nearby hungarian town which is now called new belgrade. We walked on cobble stone roads and walked up a hill to an old tower overlooking the city below. We have been walking a lot! We also stopped by the goverment buildings that were bombed by NATO in 99'. They were sad to see. It is 6pm now and at 11:10pm we will be boarding a night train to Montenegro. We bought a sleeper cart this time and hopefully we can sleep better than our last over night trip. We will get to Bar around 8 in the morning and then we will have to take a bus about 1-2 hours to Budva. It is on the Adratic Sea. It will be nice to be by the beach for a few days. We will talk back when we get there. Until then Love you all!!!
