Best Western Premier Hotel Slon Ljubljana

... so much better in hostels. The first night we arrived, we ran into our British friends, Steve and Jen, from Vienna. We had stayed in a hostel room with them for a couple nights in Vienna and had no idea we’d ever run into them again. So it was funny that not only were they staying in our hostel, they were in our same room again. They’re really nice (Jen) and funny (Steve) people.

We spent our first day in Ljubljana just walking all around the city ...

D' best koncert. Promocija albuma je bend popeljala tud po cestah NYC,
zato sem se odločila, da se kljub neodobravanju ameriške imigracijske
politike udeležim koncerta v NYC. In letos grem iz Madrida v NYC, s 500
euri manj v žepu, ker so U2 premaknil datum koncerta za dva dni prej in
moja prejšnja avio karta je bla non-refundable ...

... everything looked so good and reasonable on the kiwi dollar - especially compared to where we had been the last few days! 2 Risottos and a large greek salad - of course washed down by the local beer. After filling ourselves up to the brim we started on the walk home when we pasted a Gelato shop! Couldn't resist just one scoop!!!! Back at the hostel we had arrange to call Anna on Sykpe so we could see Cohen - and suprise surprise Matty Hart was online ...

We grabbed our bikes and headed into the park. We happened across a little food shop that we read about in the guide book called Hot Horse. It is literally horse meat and very popular. Well while in Rome as they say. I ordered a horse burger and a beer and we sat at the picnic table enjoying the snack. Kay was  a little unsure about the burger but I thought it was good. It was very lean and tasty. (check out the photo of kay eating the burger and take a look at the ...

... forty minutes. That's okay; I've got a train ticket and a belly full of sweet-and-sour chicken to my credit on the balance sheet of life. Finally it stops shortly before dawn. Maybe I'll get to do some sightseeing today in Ljubjlana before my train leaves after all. If so I'll show you some pictures. Deal? Next stop Zurich via Austria via Liechtenstein, two more countries to check off the list. I'm on a roll.

... in -5 degrees temperatures. At 50 minutes everyone wanted to quit, but I still held out hope. 'Let's give it the full hour' I rashly said. That gave the freezing weather another 10 minutes to work us over and not much else. The bus never came. We headed towards the railway station where we could get a warm drink and a bit to eat. When we asked someone why the bus hadn't come they said 'probably because the shopping centre is closed'. Don't you hate I ...

... did manage to have a couple of drunk idiots behind us that continued to drink throughout the flight even though they looked like they would be sick at any moment. I'd much rather fly with Easyjet again, especially as most of their flights depart from Gatwick!! Getting to Stansted was a problem and it was just as bad getting back. Sitting in traffic for 90 minutes is never fun, especially at night! Slovenia was just what I needed for a first proper weekend away in ...

... what I saw of it, was beautiful. We passed along side the mountain range that cuts right through the countryside. My first impression of the country was that it was just beautiful. Needless to say, I slept very well that night, and that was probably the best shower ever! I forced myself out of bed at 9:am for the free breakfast, as backpackers NEVER turn down free food, but I quickly grabbed some bread and jam, sneaked it upstairs to my room, and crashed ...

The captial of Slovenia, it is only a very small city with 200 000 people, so although is a city, feels like a town more so. Gorgeous art like the Dragon Bridge, and other fabulous buildings around the city give Ljubljana its own special feel. A very cosmopolitan city, one of the most fabulous activities is simply to settle in a wine bar for some quality local products and contemplate life while Ljubljana walks on by on the ...

... the side engage and the window swings out like a door. Of course no one enlightened us until several weeks into the trip an Australian remarked on it. So in Krakow we sweltered through a heat wave in our attic room. Streets are often private for those in the neighborhood. The driver swipes a coded card which then electronically lowers the barrier in the middle of the road. The car passes and the barrier rises again.
