This is no ordinary McDonalds… Located in the heart of Subotica, it is the world’s only Art Nouveau McDonalds, and is housed in a historic 1912 building! Welcome to….. McDonalds! …complete with original fittings and fixtures! Mission accomplished, it is time to head back to Novi Sad… …
Since on this McDonald’s trip the intention was not to eat there, we stopped at Boss Cafe for lunch – I love this place! …remember the winery we visited..? …and Renaissance for dessert…

I left a few things behind on my last visit, so made a quick trip back to collect them… some views of the area near Edinburgh on the river, and the iconic Firth of Forth Bridge (that’s the red one)… Another ‘tough’ flight… …
