Apatin, Road Trip

Almost month and half now, a friend of mine was "home" (not sure what is home for him now) from Vancouver, so i went on a road trip to Apatin for a visit. There is a similar post from two years ago :).

Two from the road. The place is called Titelski breg (Plateau of Titel). The high ground is actually behind me, it is just not interesting to look at it from the road :). And i didn't have the time to climb up.

On the bottom picture is an old well and i think it is still used to get water for sheep. Anyone who passed this place few times knows about the spring located nearby. It is famous because it has a smell of rotten eggs, or something like that. And everyone there drinks it. I think the smell is from sulfur in it, and they claim it does not smell after few hours.

Weather those days was unpredictable. And it had to rain at least for a hour or two every day. Managed to get there with a small trouble with the car and of course it happened while it was raining. (i got a check oil light warning, had oil with me)

Got the in the late afternoon. Horrendously lost couple of Heroes of Might and Magic 3 Games while catching up whit what's new in life.

When we woke up the sun was shining, so it looked like a good day for some walking around.

Old water station, used long time ago, before Danube changed it's course and the station was not needed anymore.

While walking to Vagoni (weekend settlement, does this mean anything in english?) we stumbled upon this little guy.

Effort was spent to move him off the road to safety. We hope that was the place he was trying to get :)

We continued on the road that goes next to a "lake" made from old Danube course and got to Smuđ Čarda. As we were getting to the water they sky opened with a heavy downpour. Luckily there is a restaurant so we waited it out. It looks like a nice place to get a meal and enjoy few hours next to the water.

Later that evening i again got humiliated in HOMM3.

Next day we were not so lucky with the weather as it was already raining when we woke up. So we decided to stay on the roads and just go to Banja Junaković.

There is a pretty big forest trail there, fried was trying his best to crash a drone.

And some art in front of the Spa.

Ad on the art. Translated it says "dachshunds in exotic colors". Don't know a lot about dachshunds so i am not sure what is exotic in those colors.

And one monument from our Tito era. This one keeps the concrete with sharp edges style, it is just not big as they were known to make them. It is a Memorial to fallen pilots in WWII, in April 1941 bombings.
