An Afternoon With Zagreb
I arrived in Zagreb, Croatia this afternoon. It's a city that did not inspire high expectations but was surprised at the city once I walked around a bit.
Interesting event on the train to Zagreb...the pleasant Croatian passport control kicked one traveller off because she didn't have enough money on her. It was a bit messed up because they only gave HER a hard time (asked her about her destination, length of stay, how much money she had on her, etc). I'm not sure where she was from. I had about 10 bucks on me and I got a glance, a stamp and a muttering of, what I assumed to be, "thank you" in Croatian.
