Hive Meetup
That probably everyone already forgot it happened :D
@mipiano and @ph1102 maybe even forgot that they had a vacation :)
Last year we did a small Hive meetup in Serbia, in Novi Sad, PH loved organizing it so he did it again this year. They came to Serbia by plane this year so they were not that mobile and i already had a plan of going to Apatin to visit my friend living in Canada. And @duskobgd was also willing to drive from Belgrade, so a mini Hive meetup happened. Second in a row.
As someone who takes a lot of photos, i usually don't do it with small group of people (as seen on the first Hive meetup), or when on walks with "non photographers"

The teleport looks more spectacular at night with those round lights on, but still just one of really weird metal art pieces in Apatin. It has to be a teleport or a big elevator to the middle of the earth.
After a quick walk through the city center we continued to the Danube river. One of the things Apatin is most know by is Apatin brewary.

Liberland really does not have luck with boats. Two in the picture, one sunk and one burned. Not sure do they have another one for this year festival.
One of the reasons i don't like to take a lot of photos on walks, you are always behind or everyone is just waiting for you :D
not sure which one i like better.
another of the metal Apatin art. I think there is a need for a Apatin metal art blog or a video.

After that we went for a ride to several places located on the old Danube path, now a lake. Now mostly used for fishing and rowing (no motor boats allowed).
And as i am uploading photos i see there is a theme here. Metal Art and Cats :D
We also visited a weekend settlement called Vagoni. Located on the confluence of old Danube path and current Danube path. So part of the settlement is on the old part
and part of it is on the current path
Ended the day with a drink in a bar next to the local beach. Successful meetup :)
I staid another day, with the idea to go for a row on the old part of the Danube, but we got there after a 2km walk in the middle of the day, and it was super hot. All the fishermen were going back from the water.
So after a beer and a drone flight, we decided to abort the idea.
But aborting the idea was not that bad, as we went back home and i won in Heroes of Might and Magic 3. And it was pretty spectacular win. Now i realized i didn't gloat enough and i should because me winning does not happen that often. Especially because i was sure i will lose :D

Hey @bil.prag, it's never too late to remind us with pictures of this great day in Apatin 🙂
I was waiting to see how we turned out in the pictures next to the "portal".
All the pictures are great 😀
pretty happy with those, i just didn't center it quite so no art :D
Ah even the drone you brought!
This one above looks so nice and good it doesn't even seems real

A lot of cats around lol
i will be honest in saying i didn't do justice to that shot. it looked much better live :D
cats were following us everywhere, the one on the dock got out from somewhere all the way through the dock just to get petted :D
Hahaha, no, we still didn't forget 😂
And this meetup won't be forgotten either 😜
So, the real, proper photos arrived👏 Love the portal photos 📸. Too bad it wasn't in the evening with lights but at least those metal somethings got now a real meaning - Hive portal 😉
well it is over 2 weeks :D
would be nice if it could be used to teleport to Hive meetups :D
I did not forget about the meetup ;) And you've hit the 3 big B's with this post:
And now it is officially a recurring meetup 🥸
Thanks :D
Now there is pressure on PH to organize one next year :D
Love the one of the fisherman!
it was a lady. with everything she needs, even an umbrella for the rain and sun that was switching that day :D
It's always great to have you at these meetups, as you're a great company, and you take great photos! 😃
Thanks for taking the initiative for this meetup! It was a bit complicated to do it this year, but after this one, I think that the next one will be even greater!
it was a happy accident as the dates and things coincided and it pushed you to make a quick date decision :D
now that there were 2 in a row it is officially annual thing, so next one has to happen :D
What good memories! 😄 It seems that even if it's a small gathering, with the right people it turns into a memorable meeting. The photos also have a good vibe as always, even if the number was small. Thank you for sharing these moments! ✨
as these Hive meetups became a thing for me i never had a bad one :D from HiveFest, Buzzparty to small local one :D
This looks like a mini Hive meetup
It must be full of beautiful memories
Nice one!

Que lindo compartir con la gente de #Hive. Estas salidas me emocionan. Algún día tendré la dicha. Hermosas tomas fotográficas.
How wonderful to share with the people of #Hive. These outings excite me. Someday I will have that joy. Beautiful photographs.
I’ve never been to a Hive meetup yet, but seeing your photos makes me want to join one someday. The metal art in Apatin looks so unique—definitely something I’d take pics of too.
i kinda never did an online people meetup before my first Hive Fest. Now i am doing my best to not miss any of the Hive ones that i can go to :D
I am very happy to see posts like this when people meet each other, share their lives with each other through this platform and have a great time.
Definitivamente se puede ver, a través de las fotos fantásticas, que fue un encuentro inolvidable. Amé la imagen de la pequeña acariciando al gatico 🥰
This is lovely!!
Sounds like such a fun and chill meetup! Art, riverside vibes, beach bar drinks and a HoMM3 win to top it all off? That’s a perfect combo. Love seeing Hive connections come to life like this!
Surrounding forests in Apatin are pretty nice, there is something when you have a river close by :D
It is interesting how you meet one person in Subotica and one in Amsterdam and they are both from the same small place in Serbia :D
That HoMM3 win was certainly not expected, i should have taken a picture :D
amazing :3
You really blew me away with your story and the drone photos are just incredible. I love taking pictures of weirdos too. Congratulations on what you've achieved.
Thanks :D
It looks like a fun and beautiful Hive meetup! Metal art, cats, and a river environment—all in all a completely different experience.
Hi friend @bil.prag ! I'm glad you're ok! Taking photos of cats on walks is also my hobby 🙂
I started with that on my trip to Corfu :) Had a full series of Cats of Corfu. But that is a Greek island so cats all around made sense :D
