Unique Trip
Just in case you haven’t heard, Serbia has secured a spot in the World Cup Tournement that will be this year in South Africa. Many people will be travelling there to see the match (there are signs all over town and you can win trips from some of the major beer comapnies). Yesterday, a young man took off from Cacak on foot for South Africa (and buy bus and hitching). I learned about it too late to go see him off, but he will certainly have an interesting story to tell once he gets there.

More Pictures of Our Mostar Trip
Cyndi and I got home a few days ago from our vacation. On the trip home, we took quite a few pictures. We’ve uploaded about 1/2 of our overall pictures from the vacation so be sure to check out our photo stream.
Here’s whats below:
The first picture is a war memorial at Sutjeska
The second is an old hotel near the memorial. It looks like it used to be part of the Sutjeska National Park
The third is a power plant. It was out in the middle of no where near a huge open pit coal mine
The last is this random Tito memorial we came across. We aren’t sure if it is in the Republic of Srpska or the Federation part of Bosnia.

Cynd, Lydia, Isaac, and I took a trip this week. When we get back, we’ll post all of our pictures, but here a re a few to wet your whistle. Prijatno!
Farm Town
For those of you who aren’t facebook friends with me, on the weekends, I spend a few hours playing Farm Town on facebook. Why? Well, the mindless clicking is just a good way to relax. Some people watch TV….I click little squares over and over 🙂
Anyway, they started offering buildings that actually do stuff. I have a pretty sparse farm, but decided I’d get a sugar refinery. So far, everything is working good (I’m not having the problems reported at the forum), but I started doing some math…..
My refinery has 1,100 units to process. It does them in batches of 10. Each batch takes 2 hours to process. 110 batches * 2 hours each = 220 hours. That is almost 10 days! Have I done my math wrong?
[Update 03-30-2010 16:37:35] They just introduced the ability for your friends to help you produce faster. it isn’t too much faster, but it is ok…better than what it was. According to this article, yor friends can help you…..
Awww…all of us together
More on Isaac (Day 6) or Lydia the Big Sister!

More pictures of Isaac can be found on flickr here. Other updates about him can be found here .
Cyndi and Isaac were released from the hospital on Saturday. Sorry, we don’t really have anything new to post yet; however, while we were in the hospital, Lydia was such a big girl. She wanted to help out by holding Isaac. That has continued even after we got back to the apartment.
Please note, I could only post this in one category at a time. If you want to read the latest about Isaac, follow the links above.
