Zagreb sightseeing

We are a bit behind on posting but we'll try our best to get you caught up.

First, a couple of days of sightseeing in Zagreb:

We enjoyed the museum of naive art quite a bit. 

And the Nikola Tesla museum quite a bit less.

We spent some time sympathizing with the tortured looking fountain statues...

And of course we ate and drank Alot!

Costa Rica --- An Eclectic Impression

Tour 2: Day 0 Zell Am See

After taking a train and doing our laundry, we ended up in Zell Am See, which is full of Muslim tourists! (See here for background and more pictures.)

The infrastructure for non-hikers is (therefore) very well developed. We decided to go with the flow, and went up by bus and the contraption above.



These brought us to the huge dams that provide are used to create electricity. The electric company owning these dams obviously thinks PR is important as well, and provides touristic photo ops, a museum, etc.





After unashamedly being a tourist for a day, we walked down a few hundred meters to an Alm, where we spent the night.



UPDATE:

Below are the webcam shots from the dam.

And two more.

Intermezzo: Chicago

Apologies for the slow posting of holiday pictures. Last weekend we were in Chicago where we saw Soumyadip, Oni and Tuncay...



... and ate lots of wonderful food.







We also saw a little bit of the city.
