Blog description
For my dear friends far far away... a diary of my wonderful life in the lovely country of Croatia.

Explanation to all who wonder why this blog is in English:
my dear friends, to whom I write this instead of e-mails, are not Croatian. They’re from all over the world. So, I write in English, which all of my friends, whether Croatian, or Japanese, of French, or Mexican, can understand.

Forgot my e-m@il?
Well, here it is!

The last movie I've seen...
I can't seem to find the time to go see a movie. Or the will. Or the money :).


Alexander the Great

Horrible, horrible movie. Don't go and see it is my honest advice.



The Chronicles of Riddick

What can I say? Vin Diesel. If this were the worst movie in the history of movie making, I’d still love it. But it was quite good, actually. Sort of like Conan in space, but with a much, much hotter guy in the main role. Vin Diesel. Ah, he could make a movie about him walking around in an empty room for two hours doing nothing and I’d think it was the movie of the year :). (oh, and this stays here until I see a new movie with Vinnie boy :)))

The book(s) I'm reading these days...
Right now I've got the new Terry Pratchett - "Monstrus Regiment". It's too serious for a Discworld book so far.

Damn useful!

Stranded, part 2

Last year when honeybunny and I were going to Split, we got caught in a worst snowstorm that year.

This year, when honeybunny and I were coming BACK from Split, we got caught in a worst snowstorm this year.

It was horrible. On the coast, the wind was blowing about 100 km/h, with max. speed up to 215 km/h (on a bridge, which was closed). On the radio we heard of the devastations the wind has caused – ripped rooftops of buildings all over the country, and even a whole side of a hospital building was carried off by the wind.
We left early, because we heard the weather forecast, which said of more horrible weather on the way, and we wanted to reach Zagreb before dark. Fat chance.
Just when the sun went down, which meant we had about an hour of light, and we could make it to Zagreb ok, we found ourselves on a top of an 884-meter high mountain. On the very peak, we stopped. There were cars in front of us, cars behind us, snow all around us, and falling hard. A regular blizzard.
So we waited, about a fifteen-minute drive from the highway, which we knew was cleared, we waited. And waited. And waited. And waited.
