Trains!

Not much to say. Rode a train. Got off. Waited half an hour. Got on another. Got to Berlin. Checked in. Going to bed. Total about 9 hrs of travel including a ferry ride. My phone is not letting me post pictures so I'll try again tomorrow.

Lisbon

The flight to Lisbon was pretty smooth and easy. Once I got there late, I had one thing to do other than sleep at my hotel. I had to go to the time out market and get some baby pig. In Ohrid I met a Portuguese guy who suggested two places to me and I settled on the one that made baby pig sandwich. It was delicious. The meat was so soft and fluffy and the skin was nice and crispy. If you're ever in Lisbon, this is the place: https://www.timeoutmarket.com/en/eat-and-drink/henrique-sa-pessoa/ Thank you Filipe. It was awesome. Still no food pictures. I am not about that life.

Sarajevo

What a city. Riding in, I knew I'd see some holes in buildings but it was so much worse than I'd imagined. The owner of the hostel insists on being called 01, his father's war code name. He's very interesting and has some fabulous stories. We did three of his tours. A private collection tour, a city scars tour, and a front lines tour. I was one of two people. 01 uses his personal car and can drive a maximum of four people. The tour today was me and one other guy. We saw buildings absolutely destroyed, one filled with bullet, artillery and anti-aircraft holes. We also went to a destroyed nursing home that's since become  a drug house and walked around that a little.

We walked through trenches, looked at bunkers, went to a destroyed hotel turned to sniper bunker, and went to the edge of the minefield. All of the places we went wer...

Prague day two

After long days in Prague and Vienna I decided to take it a bit easier. The palace is incredibly far and very busy. I decided I have to go back to Prague one day. There is a museum with Warhol and Dali works that I decided to go see. Dali's art always seems cool and the Warhol exhibit was about him more than his art. From there, I went to the Bob Dylan art museum across the street as I didn't even know he made art. It wasn't bad. From there I went to the old Jewish section of town which is a cemetery and a few Synagogues that have since been made into museums of sorts. It's one ticket for all of them. By this point I was still tired after long days and it was getting a little later so I decided to take it slow for the waning hours and just wandered. It's both Abe Lincoln and a woman looking out a window Dude sure liked his Marilyn He also designed a bunch o...
