Fish Market

Eew look at these ugly fish!

The eel looks kind of cool. What do you think?  There are so many types of fish in this fish market.
My dad loves sea food so nummy for him but the smell is horrible.
The owners of this place probably put parsley in the eels mouth to look nicer.
 
The cool sword fish has a long nose. 

Swans

Back at Linderhof Castle I got a picture of real swans. King Ludwig II loved swans. I also got a picture of the fountain. The fountain goes really tall.

Home!

 Our life at home is like this. The ice cream truck comes every 2nd Sunday, and the ice cream is delicious! Sometimes we go to a different mall than the one we did the last time. In Rijeka, there are tons of  stores. My favorite is the one called Centar Tower. Centar Tower is a big mall with all kinds of stuff. It's the biggest one we have seen. A lot of people come to Centar Tower. I think it is their favorite mall.
Sometimes I make friends but here making a close friend takes years.

Adriatic Sea and Parking!

Our view is of the Adriatic Sea and the Istrian Peninsula. The Adriatic Sea is a large body of water on the eastern side of Italy. Croatia is the place we have lived in which used to be part of Italy.
The car in this picture is less than an inch away from the wall. Most cars are parked like that. The driving is so bad that we almost got into a car wreck! Right now we don't have a car, but we had gone places earlier in our rental car.

Facts

                                            Soccer

Soccer is the most popular team sport. In Croatia, they call soccer foot ball because you use your feet. Isn't it odd that we call foot ball, foot ball and you usually use your hands. A single national team represents the entire state so you'd have to try your hardest to win! We went to a soccer game last night and we got very good popcorn.

   At the soccer game there were about 1000 police (kind of exaggerating). The police wore padded armor and they also checked my jacket to see if I had anything that could harm anyone. I got hurt on the way there so I went back to the house and put a band aid on. The cars usually don't stop for us but there were so many police around the stadium that they stopped very fast for us. Croatia won the soccer game!

Where I've Been

        Red means I have lived there, blue means I've been there.

Things there are that we have at home.

Kitty's


There are a bunch of street kitty's. I think there really cute. This morning I saw a cat cuddling with my family's ball, that reminds me that they also have balls in Croatia. We got a Ben10 ball because it was the cheapest.
In this picture, you see a really cute cat. We call the cat Celeste.

Linderhof

We went back to Germany and went to a palace that King Ludwig II. I liked all the cool fountains
the castle is called Linderhof. it has lots of fancy rooms.We were not allowed to take pictures because they want to make money for the pictures they sell and so that the walls don't lose their paintings.
We went through a cool town called Oberamergau. We got a picture of the full moon rising up over the Austrian Alps.

Zegreb

We got a very fun trip to Zagreb. We just got home to our apartment in Croatia. The hotel we went to was very swanky because Zagreb is the capital city of Croatia. We saw statues of very famous people. We love the bakery there. I got a strudel. It was good. The swanky hotel we went to is 5 stars. It was built to be a stop over for the Orient Express which was a train that ran between Paris and Istanbul. The Orient Express was a famous train used by rich people.This is me and my brother at the market.
