We visited a war zone today. There was so much damage from the 1991 fighting between Serbia and Croatia. 90% of the city was destroyed by Serbian bombs and tanks and much of the population was sent off to concentration camps or murdered outright. This was a very sobering experience for all of us. You can still see machine gun bullet holes in many of the buildings as well as bomb damage.
The people are rebuilding, now that Croatia has its independence and life is returning to normal.
We did manage to get haircuts, even though we didn't speak the language. a great experience.
We will post more pictures later.
Our internet connection is very spotty..
