Rain and I
leave when it dries 11.30, after enjoying a breakfast with purely homemade
sausage, jam but with my own gluten free bread.
The kitchen is the beating
heart of this hospitable family that has taken up several orphans.
Host Nina wants
a picture with her, me and my bike for her collection of warm showers guests.
Under the still dripping leaves we say goodbye.
After entering Serbia via the Danube Bridge it finally clears up.
In Batina at a round about,
I bump into Scott and Bert. Both guys I met before and we decide to head for
Osijek together.
On a sunny blue-skied
terrace we overlook the Danube and Osijek’s castle and fort. We decide to
combine the very late lunch with dinner and have a hearty meal, accompanied by
two half liters of good local beer.
Osijek is a
beautiful town with nice architectural buildings. They seem to me from the
Habsburg period, but I am not sure. On the market around half past six it’s
busy. Some life music, shoppers and many young people. Two hours later the
place is deserted and all nightlife has moved to the old center, where our
hostel is. It’s Thursday evening, student night, and we are warned that it will
be a late one. With the nightclub on the ground floor filling up at eleven
that’s right. I go to bed late after working on my blog, but the night is
short. I will make up for it to night.
