素敵アンティークを狙うなら東欧、そんなオススメを旅中何度かいただいて、いざクロアチアの首都ザクレブの日曜市に乗り込む。西ヨーロッパの蚤の市に比べ、品物がちょっと違って面白い。東側の国だからか、洒落たものもあるが、シンプルで無骨なデザインが多い気がする。どちらかというとシブい。そして大きく違ったのが値段。ドイツやイギリスの市には、それは素敵なものがたくさんあったのだけれど、なかなか手を出せる値段じゃなかった。が、ザグレブの市は、手が出せてしまう。ので、勢いソ連製のアコーディオン(3000円ぐらい)やら、古くてでかい弁当箱(2000円ぐらい)を買い、宿に戻って、増えた荷物に唖然とする。
DAY660 : FLEA MARKET IN ZAGREB
We heard many times that good antique markets are in the East Europe while traveling. Here we are at the Sunday market in the capital of Croatia, Zagreb. It was interesting how different items were sold in the East from the West Europe. We found most of them are more simple and plain. Relatively modest and distinctively cheap. Things sold in Germany and UK were nice and charming but the price were way too high for us. But here, it was so reasonable that we went crazy buying thins like an old accordion made in Soviet (about$30) or an big and old lunch cases (about $20). Back in our motel room, we were speechless what we have done to our luggage.
