Croatia Part 4 - Pictures from my coworkers and other random stuff

We got stuck in Frankfurt, Germany on our way home. Mechanical issues with engine number 4.

Standing in line four 2 hours to check into the hotel, with the rest of the Boeing 747 passengers, was better with some good German beer. :D




My coworker, Chad, also took some great photos during our trip. He's a bit of a paparazzi with the camera. Here are some of his shots:
Still learning the settings on my camera
 
Part of the US team

Even in Zadar, they are occupying...

This is near the sea organ

Interesting sentence structure

No pipes on board!

Trying to get a shot!

Pondering...

Angry Birds


Ha ha, i didn't expect a camera in my face at this moment. Looking mighty New York.






Caves are awesome

I like this picture




Photos from my coworker, Jason.

Inside the round church (remember picture 1 from post 1)

"Quality white fish" whatever that means...

Interesting Saturday night in Croatia

The team :)


No German Shepherds. The signs in Croatia are so specific




Croatia Part 3 - Northbound to Zagreb

The last leg of my trip (not including being stuck in Germany during my trip home) included heading north to the capital city, Zagreb. It was my first time renting a car in Europe.


Civil war tribute






It was so sad, passing buildings throughout the country that had pock marks from bullets in the walls. It's hard to believe the country was at war about a decade ago.


I look like a kid in this picture. Why am i so happy to be on a tank?





Capital city, Zagreb

Someone spilled some paint. Kind of artistic

Kitchen of Gallo restaurant. Best meal in Croatia

Appetizer. I forgot to to take a picture when the plate first came out. Hence, the bite mark

Beef ravioli soup. Yummy.

FYI Croatia has some good wine.

Entree: Pan roasted halibut, sauteed vegetables, and potato gratin. YUM-O

Hmmm Chocolate cake.

Seafood of the day. Great sales pitch. I guess a good product sells itself


Champagne to celebrate 3 years at Sandia. Apparently Dom Perignon stole this recipe


The restaurant had a great wine selection



I love the architecture
