Theo and I are practicing the concept of turns to decide what we’ll do next. Both of “his turns” today involved stopping to listen to street musicians.

The sun sets around 4 pm in Zagreb in December. That doesn’t really matter, because it’s amazing here at night. There are Christmas markets everywhere with mulled wine (always), roasted chestnuts (generally), live music (sometimes), and ice skating rinks (okay, only one of those, but a really lovely one).
Since we’re headed to somewhat warmer climates for the rest of the winter (Turkey and then Cyprus), we were excited to get a dose of snow before we left Croatia, even if it has made exploring Zagreb a bit more shivery.
We really enjoyed Zagreb, and in my mind it contends with Lyon as the most livable place we’ve stayed thus far: lots of activities within easy walking distances and really good food (and coffee).
