Novi Sad - Serbia's second city
Novi Sad - Serbia's second city Day 19 - Day 5 in Belgrade

'Sleeping with the enemy'
Useful advice - don't get drunk before bedtime when camping.
Woke up this morning to find 3 well fed mosquitoes inside my tent - horror.
How did the mosquitoes get inside the tent? It turned that I was so drunk that I left a little opening in the tent, enough for the mosquitoes to get inside. Those mosquitoes paid the ultimate price for biting me at night.
I had some more of those delicious Serbian ice cream in Belgrade and then decided to visit Serbia's second city - Novi Sad. No, not new sad, there is nothing sad about the city. Novi Sad means 'New Plantation'. It was over 1 hour drive North, but it was worth it.
Today, the temperature reached a sizzling 38 degrees centigrade. That is hotter than Hong Kong.
Saw the 5th G wagon in Serbia. The one pictured is a W463 series photographed in Novi Sad.
1st GWagon - It is coloured blue - yes you've guessed it right - it was a Serbian Police car - about the same age as the one I

2nd G wagon - civilian.
3rd G wagon - Pugh in military colours
4th G wagon - relatively new G55 in black
Reached camp just before 10 pm, dying for a cold shower before it was time to write my blog entry for the day.
I forgot to mention in my previous blog entries that Serbia is a great place to cycle because it is flat in many places and some good cycle paths near city centre. Cycling in the outskirts of the city is not recommended.
