Parking & Humidity

This sign means no parking and if you do you will be spidered/towed.  The way they tow cars here is they hook chains to the tires and then lift them up and put it on this truck and then they take it away to the holding parking lot and you have to pay 500 Kuna, which is about $80 to get your car back.  So, we know all about his because this happened to us.  We had parked in a spot the Elders told us we could park in because they had parked there many times, but the one time we parked there we got spidered.  We came back to get in our car and it was gone!  So, we had to find a taxi driver who spoke English to take us to go get our car.  It was really a big deal to get our car back, so we are glad to have our special parking pass in our car now and we know not to believe the Elders when it comes to speciall parking places. 

This is the really cool castle up on the hill above Zagreb.  It is just up the hill from our apartment

I know that in Arizona you guys have had those Haboobs this summer, but yesterday we had our own special weather.  This is what 100% humidity looks like here.   It was not raining, but the air felt just like it was.  It was not a bad day though because the temperature was only about 75 degrees.
