Day 2 - Tuzla - 3rd of June 2023

Coffe at Gajba

I woke up and made my way down to bar Gajba and ordered a coffee. I asked for croissants which they didn't have, but the lady there insisted that I eat chocolate chip cookies instead, they were the nicest chocolate chip cookies I have ever had easily! The coffee was excellent, I can add here that Bosnia does very nice coffee! I ordered a second coffee and she insisted that I take more cookies but I politely refused.

I explored Tuzla a bit buying a kiflica with cheese along the way. In the city I was delighted to find a guy selling DVDs of Bosnian and Yugoslavian films, I bought 10, the guy was delighted.

Kapija Monument

I went ti the "Gradska Kafana"where I ordered a Tuslanski Pilsner, just opposite Kapija where 71 people lost their lives, mainly young. Stanislav and his sister had survived that. I was feeling quite emotional, especially when quite a large group of people arrived with flowers and sat close to me in the kafana, they seemed happy and not bothered, so I guess I was crying their tears instead. I begger interrupted my thoughts and I gave her some change.

Me and Omer

I then realised that I had missed some messages from Omer, so I waited for him to arrive. I finished my beer, and afterwards Omer bought me for probably the best pizza Quattro Formaggi outside of Italy. I had more beer and rakija thanks to Omer. He also brought me to Park Pub which is also one of his business interests. I commented that there was no Irish flag so he asked one of the guys on the spot to buy a flag!
