Beograd (Belgrade) has been bombarded by both McDonald's and NATO in recent years. These buildings were across the street from one another. So much for the McDonald's theory of Peace and Development. (A political science threorist whose name escapes me noted that no countries with a McDonald's had ever been at war) .
The American Embassy is about 2 blocks down this street (among many other NATO members). My hostel owner had no idea why it had been bombed, or at least he would not tell me.

I bought cheese... at the deli counter. Nothing was repeated, all parties left the transaction satisfied. Yeah, today was that good. I hope to be in Albania by the 5th of October.
