Bosnia Rocks, Croatia Rolls

Having a great time in Bosnia. The country doesn not seem as desperate as my last visit over a year ago. Unfortunately, I cannot understand if desperation replaced by resignation is a good thing or not.

My first trip to Sarajevo is memorable for many reasons, unfortunately I have not the time to chronicle them now. My impression of Sarajevo is that its beauty is matched only by the horror they went through. The scars of war are still visible...bullet holes, shelled out buildings, land mine warning signs...and the hills, forever a reminder not just of the beauty, but of the shelling.

One simply cannot understand the ontological existence of Sarajevo today without standing in the city center and seeing the perfect circle of hills that surround you...hills from which the artillery was fired into the city.

Will post more later.
