central & eastern europe 8

Today we took the bus from Pécs in Hungary to Osijek in Croatia.
It was only a 2 hour trip which passed by pretty fast.
At the border of Croatia the border patrol made us wait for a little
bit because they needed an official invitation paper from Osijek
which we had but not printed out. After a few phone calls we were
alowed to pass with a new stamp in our passports but I would have
never thought that it is still so difficult to get into certain
countries.
It didn´t take long until we saw the first signs of the war between
Croatia and Serbia in 1991-1995.
The hotel we moved into is the most fancy we had so far. I have a
very spacious room and a huge bed and my view is fantastic, too.
The hotel is situated in a very old part of the town - a town within
the town.
From the outside the place looks pretty run down but on the inside
it is perfectly fixed up.
