Grand Union Business Ljubljana

... fried. It is served with fried potatoes. Not one for the health concious then.<br><br> Embarrased myself a little this evening while playing snooker with Rok. They do insist on playing music in their snooker hall which is fine but after several beers you do find that a snooker cue makes a terrific air guitar. Once again people are giving me some strange sideways glances.<br>

... as well. Generations of carriage drivers, horse trainers, etc (and their families) that work for the Royal family have houses in this area too. Overall, the tour was really fascinating and extremely well organized-I guest to be expected from a palace! We ended by having tea and a delicious dessert in the royal gardens, overlooking the lake and forested areas around the palace. We drank with our pinky fingers out and contimplated how life ...

... of corn, sunflowers and wheat were everywhere and beautiful green and black domed churches popped up every now and then amongst the countryside.<br><br>I found my way quite easily to the hostel and was surprised at how hot it was, especially compared to the wintry weather I'd just come from. The hostel is in the old town and just down the road from the famous Dragon Bridge. I wandered around for a little while, checking out my ...

... dinner and meet the bus later. Most of us take a cable car up to the castle to take a few pics of the city etc, unfortunately the tower is closed. We find a good restaurant that serves horse, i of course order it and am surprised at how tender it is, tastes great not sure if its worth the 22E i spent but i can tick that of the list! We walk the streets till 9pm to catch the bus back to camp.

... I took the Funicular ride up to the Bled Castle. It was nice, but the repairs changed the original look and a lot of "modernizations" had taken place which I thought sad. Very few people, which was definitely a plus. Back down to the city to continue my walk and discovery. One of my favorite buildings in the city is the University. It is so elegant and charming. Well, it's ...

... explain why that was just down right bad business. I threw on the wettest clothes I had to dry them on my train rides throughout the day and threw the rest in my bag to accumulate mold until Austria. I caught my train, and enjoyed a beautiful train ride through the quant little towns of Slovenia covered by rolling hills and creeks and streams. I am now typing from my transfer train to Vienna in a cabin that has power outlets! This officially makes me caught up... for now.

... another few, then went to Bachaus at about 1:30. Bachaus was amazing! Not the music generally as that was your standard cheesy club fare, but the clientele was astounding. The amount of gorgeous women in Ljubljana takes it to the top of the list of honey pots of the world, displacing Fukuoka, Japan. I stayed until about 4am before heading back to the hostel. John and Dave disappeared off to Global and I didn't hear anything from them until they came barging into the ...

Although I can never remember how to spell it's name, I will always remember this sweet little town. It's the capital of Slovenia but when we arrived on the Sunday it was so quiet we thought we'd left the train too early. However, this is just one of the charms of visiting a smaller city in europe. It's stuck in a bit of a timewarp, everything closed on a Sunday except some cafes and the biggest branches of ...

... and buttons that scream short three and four letter words in english... nothing Im all that interested in buy... a big market was just packing up down the street when we walked over there after grabbing a quick bite to eat... Im excited to see what that is all about tomorrow morning! Our hostel is not much to get excited about... but it is clean and the people are friendly. We are in a four bed doom room this time... but havent met our room mates ...

... further extending our tour as we had to scope out yet another tourist info center. I think this was the first time I just sat down - really sat down - and just people watched for any length of time. Apparently Ljubljana is a city of students, which I'm happy to confirm after speculating that the majority of people wandering past looked like how I used to feel. That might have been slightly up ...
