WHAT ARE YOU DOING TODAY (PICS)

[Tago Mago]

On the road again

What a jet setter!

We just got home and are all settled. I got a stark reminder of the differences in people and places when the airport shuttle van driver said he’s turning 47 tomorrow (my age) and has 7 grandkids. Also, markedly less Porsches and more pickup trucks.

Not quite St Tropez, but I’ll take it

@Matt whats wrong with my F250, boy?

[Matt]

It’s ok Ed. It didn’t see any Subarus over there either. Porsches must fill that particular niche. I’m in the wrong city.

It may be my birthday, but The Boat Show starts tomorrow, and SAKURA will be here for the duration. It was my job to bring her over (the easy part) and then park her in front of dozens of "will he prang it/will he not" lookers on and boy was that nerve-wracking. No room to turn her in the fairway, so had to reverse from out there......

The stern-to park her here....

Fuck, that was hard.....

I can think of worse ways to spend a birthday. Like how I spend most of mine.

We went to see a special place today, the abandoned Haludovo Palace Hotel, the place to be in 70s Yugoslavia for sex, drugs and … well, whatever. Sadam Hussein is supposed to have had pool parties here, bathing in champagne.

The place has change a bid since, but still has some atmosphere.

The bar and pool area:

from the roof top we had a nice sunset

@endo that looks fantastic! I love a good bit of urban decay. Are you seeing any of those spomenik monuments while you're there?

[endo]

That is amazing @endo I love me some midcentury modern x brutalism architecture!

[Matt]

Reminds me of the pirate hideout in The Life Aquatic.

[Nik]

Beautiful building. Luxury socialism!
