Zargreb

After a missed connection due to a late running train, we spent 3 hours at Dobova station in the middle of nowhere waiting for the train to Zagreb. It finally arrived over an hour late!

After depositing our bags at our lovely accommodation (B&B Concept) we had a good wander around Zagreb. 

There are a lot of small museums dedicated to some interesting topics: Hangovers, Broken Relationships and Mushrooms to name but a few! Unfortunately, due to the earthquake of 2020, many of the main buildings were damaged and are currently undergoing repairs.

There are a number of fountains and statues throughout the city, the pedestrian areas have some lovely bars and cafes where we sampled some of the local beers; highly recommended! We finished off our evening by eating at a local restaurant “La Štruk” which served a typical Croatian dish called štrukli, a bit like lasagne with layers of pasta/dough with cheese sauce and a choice of fillings.

We opted for red pepper and pumpkin seeds. Different! Delicious and filling.

After a wander around Zagreb this morning in the drizzle, we are now on the train to Budapest.
