| Pension | Guest House Toplik | Booking.com | Sarajevo | $101.00 | Three nights Toplik br. 571000 Sarajevo Amar is amazing. Very knowledgeable and helpful... in fact, above and beyond helpful. WiFi is strong and the property is nice, clean and comfortable. Convenient to downtown core. 5km from bus depot (although Amar solved that problem by picking us up in the rain). Taxis in Sarajevo are challenging and difficult, but again, Amar solved that problem for us too by driving us to the airport early in the morning! | ||

| There are lots of buses in Croatia which offer free WiFi. Unfortunately, none of those busses are ones we've taken. Sigh.\n I really didn't expect the drive inland to Sarajevo to be so scenic. It was \n\nabsolutely beautiful, in spite of the rain. Almost like driving through the \n\nOkanagan. Rolling green mountain after rolling green mountain. Wow!\n We REALLY hit the jackpot with the place that we're staying. It is costing us only \n\nabout $100CAD for three nights, it is nice and clean, has strong WiFi, and is \n\nextremely convenient to the interesting areas of Sarajevo. The best part, though, is \n\nour host, Amar. He e-mailed offering to pick us up at the bus station today. \n\nNormally I wouldn't - it wouldn't be a problem for us to walk the 5km, but it was \n\nraining so I took him up on it. He picked us up, brought us to the property, and \n\nsays he'll also drive us to the airport for our plane to Turkey on Tuesday morning! \n\nWOW!!\n Sarajevo is the perfect stop-over on our way from Croatia to Turkey. I didn't expect \n\nit to be so significantly different from Croatia, but it really is. It has a real \n\neastern look and feel about it. It's great to have the opportunity to ease into \n\neastern culture before we tackle a new language. Not that we're such experts at \n\nSerbo-Croatian, but it is at least familiar.\n Two points of interest for us in Sarajevo that we saw tonight: The location of the assassination of Franz Ferdinand and his wife Sofia - the event which started WWI, and a Sarajevo Rose (see link above).\n
