A Differnt Perspective

Look again. Bosnia and Herzegovina has absolutely no fast food chains, although it tries it's best to bring western charm to it's eating establishments. Hamby King looks just like Burger Kinger, however, the food is subpar. Whomever thought it was a good idea to put cabbage into a cheese buger was an idiot. Plus they do not serve fountain pop, but rather a measly glass of coke that tastes like rust. The lady behind the counter seemed confused and totally uninterested when we wanted to pay at the till. Thinking we were honest folk she brought out our meal on cute plastic trays and and waited for us to pay at the end. Did I mentioned we were the only folks in the establishment aside from a couple who were clearly chewing their food and feeding it to eachother with their mouths.

The sheep roam near the mine fields at the Volkswagon plant. Clearly this field is "safe" since a shepard has led his flock onto it. These hefty beasts are large enough to trigger mines. Sheep who seemingly are "lamb of god" kind of animals are actually quite dirty and disgusting. I am considering throwing out all of my woolen sweaters.


They have finally started to demine the field next to our house, after some poor drunk chap stumbled into to the bushes to take a leak and "kamboom!!!". The yellow tape means they are in the the process of going over the field with a fine toothed comb to remove all the land mines planeted there. The general rule in Bosnia is do not walk on the grass. So much of the nature around us looks prestine and has been reclaimed by animals who frotic in delight that men have set traps for themselves, and not for the creature of the forest.
