Photo Overload: Bratislava, Slovakia

Sights

Welcome to Bratislava...please enjoy our luxurious bus station.

Bell Tower
My favorite building in all of Eastern Europe. The textures and colors are soooo cool.

UFO landing.

The Castle...I zoomed in to make it look like I bothered to visit it.

As you can see, this was a really popular attraction.

This sign takes me back to the Writing Center days...oh non-native speakers.

Main Street, SLK.

Train Station: it looks safer than it felt.

StatuesPaparazzi!

When I first saw this statue, I thought it was one of those guys who pretends to be statue. I actually had to get close enough to touch it, in order to realize it was in fact a statue.


Oh hi creepy sewer man.


Us with Napoleon ...Bonaparte, not Dynamite.


Food
Beer hall in Slovakia...a renovated church. Perfect.

If I look cold, then its because I was...and if it looks like my breath smells, its because it did. Note to self: Garlic soup=not the best "date" food.


Apparently the original "Slovakian" beer.

Menu Item #254: Free soup + Small Kafula (Valid only on day of exam during Examination period).
Menu Item #255: Poor Student Lunch
Menu Item #256: Lunch of Student after payday


Menu Item 258: Lunch of student who wants to disport himself to his girlfriend (served on one plate)...FYI: disport: (verb tr., intr.: To divert or amuse (oneself))

Slovakia's response to macaroni and cheese. Bryndzové halušky (potato dumplings with sheep's-milk cheese)

Dumplings with Blueberry filling, powdered with cocoa and sugar
Chocolate Shop #1

...and #2

Chocolate Pigs: You are what you eat.

Goodbye, Eastern Europe!


I was one of ten people in this airport that night. I'm not even joking.
