garden festival serbia

garden festival day1

Day one of the festival was a blast, my people are here, apart from the usual possee – wendy, foo fish, rosi, emily, ian, sarah. Gillian and paula are here!!!!! – is so fab its fab.

The village, if i can call it that more of a summer holiday town reminds me of villages on the Mediterranean beautiful cove, beautiful crystal clear sea i think im going to have fun, my people are here, had dinner at a lovely rustic restaurant with the 10 of us then repaired to café moro a local hostillery for beers by the sea, i finally called it quits at 2am,

my current clothing inventory is 1 shirt, 1 pair of trousers, 1 pair of combat boots, 2 pairs of socks, 2 tshirts and a pair of ugly ass flip-flops that i had to buy to get out of the boots. Am going to find a payphone/internet access to try to find out more about my missing baggage. And sort my festival tickets out.

well guess what my rucksack has gon missing somewhere between doha and split! so i have prcicly 2 pants 2 pairs of socks and 2 tshirts to survive in till it turns up ;(

croatia - finaly

blogging from airside of split airport, its a lovley mid 30s- it feels kind of lovley, not the incinaratorial heat im used to, lovley landing over the islands, have the feeling im going to fall in love with croatia.

frankfurt photos

frankfurt airport

Frankfurt airport, one double espresso, one pint of pills, one weissbeir and a bratwurst later it feels ok, def. The best airport en route sofar, agt least they have good food, 6hours here is going to be difficult, have spent two and have done the entire airport.

Frankfurt has a monorail! Very cool – feels however just like gatwick or the DLR in london small plasticy bubble.

Frankfurt airport also has a casino (read one armed bandits rather than baccarat) and a licensed sex shop (think anne summers rather than Soho sex den) anyway its nice to be back in liberal Europe!

Big bummer – no free wifi – why its a common curtsey for the business traveller who needs to do their email etc. in my case i need to blog – live blogging something is hard if there is no net access. I dont need to tell you the rates from tmobile– 4euros for 15 mins!!!!! its ridiculous price gouging.

bahrain airport

a little small and soulless but ok as airports go

Gulf air to bahrain
