Today was pretty much soaked in history. Of course, it's hard to be in Europe without that happening. We started off the day visiting the big market in Old Town. Beautiful displays - everything from fruit and flowers to eggs, meat, cheeses and one booth where a knot of middle aged men were standing around apparently having an early morning glass of sherry! It was both indoors and out and great people watching as we sipped a cappucino. at a sidewalk table.

Our museum of the day was a bit of a disappointment, but was enlivened by the car show being held in its courtyard.

As we left, we spotted some incredible graffitti and other strange art in the next block. Walking over to take a look, it turned out to be a hostel next to a courtyard literaly covered in some of the most beautiful graffitti I have ever seen - and mosaics and sculpture and railings made of old metal headboards -it was a
riot of color and creativity. A young man from New Zealand told us there was live music there and was a place where young people came to party. Wild!

Walking back we heard drums and trumpets, so had to see what was going on. Down the promenade by the river came a procession of medieval lords and ladies, knights and musicians. We have no idea what the occasion was, but it was impressive. They were apparently from Italy, if we deciphered their banners correctly.

 Traditional dinner of goulash tonight. Had to do it. Followed by gelato, of course!
