This is a picture of my cousin, Nick, who lives in Karlovac. He came to pick me up at my hotel Saturday morning. In the winter, he grows a beard – which I have never seen before since I’ve visited in early fall or spring. He is always great company and I enjoy getting updates on his family since our last visit a year and half ago. He took me to a traditional Croatian meal – blood sausage with sauerkraut and mashed potatoes. I was a little afraid of the blood sausage at first – but it was delicious. I also saw Jadran Boban, a Croatian filmmaker, who gave me some DVDs of Croatian films to take back for the Kansas International Film Festival. I’ve really excited to get to watch them – and since it is a rainy dreary day in Pécs, I’ll probably get a chance to watch one this evening.
Nick looks different with the beard.
