Going to Sarajevo via Osijek

Belgrade
I checked out Hotel Belgrade at 8:30. Breakfast was a few pieces of bread, cheese and coffee. Though the coffee tasted so bad, I bought an orange juice cost 100 CSD. Expensive!!

I took pictures of the train station on the way to the bus station. Policemen cautioned me for taking pictures at the train station. I felt I was standing on a communism country with deep emotion in a way. When I was child, my dad taught me that communism countries such as Soviet and eastern Europe did not allow to take pictures at stations. However I was not cautioned for taking pictures at the train station in Poland, Czech, Hungary and Baltic countries.

I bought a ticket to Osijek at the international ticket counter. The woman I met yesterday sold me the ticket. 1000 CSD was left, I exchanged 1000 CDS for Bosnian Konvertibilna Marka (BAM). I thought I could not withdraw Marka from ATM.

I got on the bus to Osijek with mineral water and potato chips. It took about 3 and half hours to Osijek. The bus crossed the boarder at Šid. Serbian custom and immigration officers were very polite. Both officers were young and spoke English. However Croatian officer were very rude at Tovarnik, he made me out of the bus and kept me waiting for about 10 minutes at cold air.
