Photo of the Week - Looking Down

It is mid week and the photo is from Zagreb, while we were in Slovenia we had a day trip to Zagreb which is in Croatia. We went up a building from some great views and this is one of the many photos I took. It you have not ever been to Zagreb then you should it is a lovely city and sadly we had only one day to explore!

This weekend is a football one for us, Alessio has a match on Saturday and on Sunday we are going to St.Gallen to see a friendly match between Spain and Bosnia. I am really looking forward to see Spain play, especially the players from FC Barcelona.

A Day in Zagreb!

View of the Cathedral

Croatian Parliment

National Theater

For the Easter break I went with my friend Arlene to Ljubljana, Slovenia. Ljubljana is situated pretty much in the centre of Slovenia, which makes it good for days trips to many places. We decided to go to Zagreb in Croatia, it only took a little over 2 hours and the best part it only cost 15 euros return. We could not believe how cheap that was, so it was an early rise as the train left 8.25am, off we went.

It being Easter Sunday everything was closed, (not a surprise really) but we kind off assumed since it is the capital of Croatia something would be opened. We were just really happy to be in another country and it was a lovely day.

We walked around, visited the Cathedral which as it was Sunday was extremely busy, went on the little train that takes tourists around the old town. Zagreb is a very lovely city, lots of lovely colourful buildings, parks and churches.

We went up the Zagreb 360 observation deck and got a really fantastic view of the city! It is on the 16th floor and situated in the heart of the city.

We had a great day and saw lots of Zagreb, and can really recommend visiting this city!
