Island in the middle of a Lake: Bled
... brought us to more than just business activities but really allowed for us to experience the true culture of the country of Slovenia.
After exploring the city we went to Vintgar gorge. It was so cool! GOOD THING I CONQUERED MY FEARS OF HEIGHTS! We went along the gorge on this really scary wooden bridge thing that was attached to the side of the rock. It was such a cool experience though! The gorge was suppose to ...
