Zoo:
Since the wheather was so nice I joined the other interns in the zoo. I was not sure about the zoo the last time, but now I know from the reactions of the others, that I'm not the only one which thinks that that zoo is kind of depressing. The animals just do not have enough space.
Alana from Brasil told me a great story about something, which happend at the zoo. There is a statue of a dog. That's because once an animal broke free and the dog fought it in order to protect an human. The dog was killed, but the human was able to capture the animal. So sad :-(.
Oh, we found also that they have white hedhogs. And the worst thing we saw where the alligators. They were basically laying in a bathtube. There was not really room for them to move.
Petar was fond of a lamb that was "mähhhhhhing" all the time. Next to its cage were the lions - and there were driven crazy by the lamb. Maybe it was making fun of them: "Can't get me!"
Oh I guess there was feeding time, cause we had the pleasure to see the birds eating dead chicks and dead mice.
Novi Sad:
Tuesday evening we had been in Bistec. They had Karaoke there, but with a live band! So we decided not to sing this time ;-). First we have to learn the lyrics as for the lack of a screen it is hard to read the text.
The amount of policemen in the city and around the hostel increased that night, but in the morning there were policemen everywhere. That was because Putin was visiting Belgrade that day and the would not allow anybody on the street and also block the streets for him.
So we had to "flee" to Novi Sad in order to get out of the house.
We went by train. Which took a while. It even took a while to get out of Belgrade as we were stopping and going slow all the time. Eventually we made it to Novi Sad, which ist the second biggest city in Serbia and is located north of Belgrade. It has a really nice city center and a huge fortress called "Petrovaradin".
It's located at the Danube with a great view on the city and in the back on the mountains :-).
We drank a coffee up there. The waiter was really a confused one. He didn't really understand English, but Petar was always translating for us and he still didn't get that I ordered a "tea" and not an "irish coffee" - Does this sound like the same?
Well - never mind.
When we went back through the intercity the firemen were running into one of the cafes at the street. The funny thing that the people outside were not reacting at all. I don't you get what you have ordered if your cafe is burning.
We went to eat a pizza. I ordered Magaritha since I thought I cannot do anything wrong with that, BUT they put mushrooms an all their pizzas :-(. And the put even ketschup and curry on it! Mirsini said she doesn't want Ketschup and still got it. The problem is that the tomato sauce on the pizza ist also called Ketschup. So you can eat it with double ketschup (real ketschup and tomato sauce).
My voice:
Coming back from Novis Sad I lost my voice completely. And that would go on for several days. The next day at the meeting with my team, they were making fun of me - as I couldn't talk at all. I tried to throw a paper plane at one of the guys - I failed. He comment: "And that's German engineering." ;-b
