Balkans here we come

While the flights were booked months ago, we have just made the last few accommodation bookings and we are getting set to leave on Friday.  Today we started packing up the bags.  We are going to try to travel with only carry on this trip.  Each girl will have a backpack and a small carry on luggage and the same for both Dave and me.  So far its looking ok...I'm struggling with whether or not to being nice clothes and shoes for going out.  I hear the nightlife in Belgrade is unbelievable and that you should dress up! I guess I can always buys something!
