Our final day in Slovenia was a little bit less exciting than those which had come before it. The massive storm that had come the night before left the place a little cool and cloudy, and killed our motivation to swim in the lake. On top of that, we were quite tired because of the craziness at the hostel the night before. The bus to Ljubljana (from where we would travel to Hungary) was at 17:30, so we had some time to kill. After checking out of the hostel, I hun...

Our third day in Bled, and we were still loving it. We had to change rooms in the morning because we'd booked a cheaper room for the final night. After breakfast and preparing ourselves for the day, we grabbed a bus and made the short journey to Lake Bohinj. This lake was bigger than the one in Bled, and since it was a little higher up in the mountains it was way colder as well. After a short stroll around the perimeter, we found a nice private spot that would s...

Well, after having a bit of time to experience the beauty of Lake Bled yesterday, it was time for us to slow down and relax a bit - basically, to have a bit of a 'holiday' from all the travelling we've been doing. Yeah, la vida dura, I know... The two main activities of the day consisted of visiting the castle at the top of the rock face on the north side of the lake, and then doing something we hadn't done in far too long: getting in the water. It's just too bl...

So after a couple of days in the pretty but small Slovenian capital, it was time to make our way towards one of the places I was most excited for in our trip - Bled, a small town on the edge of the Julian Alps with a popular lake.... ...And it didn't let us down. After getting off the not-very-long bus ride from Ljubljana sometime around noon, it took us about two minutes to decide we would have stay night longer than planned. This place was amazing, like someth...

As Ljubljana - although cute - wasn't the biggest of capital cities we had seen, we had decided to use its central location within Slovenia as a base for a day trip. We had heard about Škocjan Cave in the southwest, so we decided since we hasn't seen anything like that it would be worth checking out. As almost always is the case, we left the hostel a little later than normal, but fortunately not too late. We had to catch a train to a little town called Divača...
