Out of Croatia and into Hungary

The 'other' Croatia

The other side
I'll need to re-evaluate my description of Zagreb. Everything I said before still stands, down to the pervasive gloom (London-like) that seems to have sucked some of the vibrance out of the city, but.. there is another side. Met Tom & Peter for a ...
