Monument Restaurant - Belgrade

All of us at at Monument, a restaurant chain in Belgrade. They seem to be a bit classy, and everyone found something they liked to eat. The food was good and not too pricy. And yes, the dessert was huge.

We played this once before we bought it, so we know we like it at least ... maybe will play next weekend when we have a long one.

 

23 for 2023: #1 Aurora Borealis by Mill Hill

A Mill Hill start for the new year. Starting 23 pieces in January. I did manage to complete 52 projects last year, and hope to get even more done this year.

 

Sapper Monument

This monument is by the river on the opposite side of the park from where the Sheraton is. It's a monument to the sappers who fought bravely in WWII. It's a pretty neat place.

 

Birthday Surprise

When we got home from Italy, Leonora surprised us with birthday presents for me - a beautiful (and delicious!) cake and a hand built puppy stair for the bed.

Thank you again, Leonora, even though it's quite late.
