I recommend Mostar

Oops, we accidentally killed Senka

On Sunday after church a few of us girls popped down to Mostar for the afternoon and evening. Mostar is south of Sarajevo, in the Hercegovina part of Bosnia and Hercegovina, about halfway between Sarajevo and Dubrovnik, Croatia. Mostar has a very Mediterranean climate: we were delighted by palm trees and balmy weather. Ahhh!

Mostar was hit hard during the siege of the early nineties, and the political strife sharply divides the Catholics and Muslims in the city, making it one of the most (if not the most) spiritually oppressive cities in the Balkans.

I didn't get a lot of pictures because it was getting dark, but here are a few...
