In 2011 Split, Croatia briefly featured in most of world's media. Not for the architecture, Festival of Mediterranean Film, Roman palace or 140% rise in room nights from tourism but for the horrific treatment of the first Split Gay Pride. Stones, firecrackers, spitting and Nazi salute chanting of 10000 angry citizens greeted just 300 pride participants. It was a very dark day in the history of my city.
Fast forward 2012.. I woke up today thinking ah.. going for a coffee and then off to get stoned.. The day of Split Pride 2012 arrived. This time it was better, bigger and 100% safe. New coalition government has shown the full commitment to human rights and this time made sure that Pride was a success. Split was a better place today then a year ago and so is the whole of Croatia.

Split is Croatia's second largest city while Zagreb is the capital! A journey from Split to Zagreb by bus is one of the most wonderful journeys one can ever have in Croatia. Lush landscape, pastel-colored buildings, and medieval atmosphere - there is so much one can enjoy during Split to Zagreb bus travel!
After seeing pictures of the old lego split-level train car set thing, I decided to build my own . However, I did not have the lego split-level train base, so it was very difficult to make it able to resist the strain of derailing (I always try to make my trains and cars able to live a derailing off of a bridge, just in case it actually happens.) Soon after, I decided to build one on LDD to add the colours and details. In the end the original model looked nothing like the LDD model. Sadly, I have no pictures because the first model was taken apart for parts long ago. In fact, that is true for most of mky models, because I am finally getting around to putting my lego models on flickr, and the models themselves were made long ago.
