Cafe culture

As we got off the train with our new-found friends, we were pleasantly
surprised with large, beautiful parks and more cafes than we could
count!

Zagrebians are the definition of cafe culture, where a 6 hour work day
is a long one, a day with only 2 packs of cigarrettes is a light one,
and a morning without a few expressos is unheard of!

The only thing zagrebians do better than cafes is their market! On our
first morning, we walked out of our guesthouse into the middle of
Croatian capitalism! Flowers, home-made stinky cheeses, fruits,
vegetables, clothes, bread, and plenty of fish and meats were all
being sold in a years old traditional marketplace.

We indulged in the market with breakfast, explored the old town on
foot, and played soccer and rugby in the massive park. All the while
being accompanied by the Americans and canadians that we met along the
way.

It will be sad to leave, but we can't gain inertia in the beginning of
the trip!

**We just realized that this post did not make it the first time we
wrote it. The picture is not on the iphone, so hopefully we were
descriptive enough for you to imagine it. Chronologically, this post
should go after our "forced spontenaity" trip to Budapest.
