I guess its time to go back to work. The weekend was fun with some good beach volleyball being played on Saturday.

I start what I estimate to be a weeklong contract tomorrow. I’ll be doing work in PHP to make a portal of sorts. It will be nice to be in an office again, always looking for a change right.

I doubt I’ll get much sleep tonight, for one reason or another. I’ll add some more photos.

Since I didn’t do any photo updates when I was in Belgrade, I’ll do them now, a new set each day for a while.

post card sent to trinh, oh well.

After a wonderful 4 days in Montenegro I’m back in Belgrade. We’re heading back to Germany and then to Halifax tomorrow.

Montenegro was a blast. Very hot sun and lovely beaches and towns. I’ve got lots of pictures that I will post when I get home. It would have been easy for me to post them if I had brought any USB adapters here… but I didn’t thinking there would be nowhere for me to put them.

I got to rent a moped and went blasting around Montenegro today. No helmet just me and the open road. A little bit risky but I was very safe around all the hairpin turns and such.

See you tomorrow.

I’m chilling in Montenegro right now. I’ve come to realise that Serbia is now actually called ‘Serbia and Montenegro’.

The sea side is about 10m away from me right now, I’m at a 24Hour internet/gaming cafe on the beach, literally ON the beach. At first we thought the hotel was $70Euro/each per night but it turns out that its 17Euro’s/each per night which makes much more sence if you see the hotel room. I’ll be back Wed. night, 11pm’ish.

I must admit I’m getting used (and perhaps a bit bored) with the cafe scene. With little purpose and little knowledge of the city and what young people do I’m finding myself getting into a routine of cafeing here.

I went to what our media would call a ‘rave’ here. I had a really good time. Gilles Peterson (well known BBC DJ so I hear) was spinning some good tunes and everyone was jamming. I’ve enlisted in ICQ to find some locals to guide me to some more going ons….

I found a link to the hotel we’re staying at here Hotel Moskva.
