Liebetegger Klagenfurt

Liebe Menschen,
es ist 5.45 in der Früh und ich bin bereits geduscht, angezogen und "auf dem Sprung". Das heißt... Es geht jetzt bald los...
Fahre jetzt nach Wien, am Abend nach München, und von da geht morgen früh unser Flieger. Erste Station in Südamerika ist dann San Jose, von wo ich mich hoffentlich übermorgen Abend wieder melde.
Bis dahin: Keep on rockin´

... took an 8-mile hike around Lake Bled and up to the Vintgar Gorge. Imagine if you will (or just look at our pictures) a clear emerald lake with a small island housing an old church/monastery with bells ringing throughout the day; on one shore a castle sits on a cliff overlooking the lake; and the Julian Alps, draped in early winter snow, sit majestically behind the hamlet ...

... werden sicher schon von der Ha Long Bucht gehört haben, das Kletterparadies schlecht hin, das ich mir sicher nicht entgehen lassen werde.

Also der Flug und drei Tage Hotel sind gebucht, einen Reisebericht und Fotos gibt`s dann in drei Wochen

Liebe Grüße Anja und Christian

Well woke up to torrential rain and it looked just like the lake district cold and damp we did try and manage to go out for a little while as we needed to get some laundry sorted and stuff but it was just to wet. We managed to get to use the internet and have a drink of really fit hot chocolate it was just chocolate melted down with lots and lots of whipped cream on the top we did not do much this day really as the weather was a wash out I managed to get ...

I was sorry to leave Opatija because the hotel was so lush but move on we had to I was also excited that we where going to another country as we had spent so much time in Croatia. Felt bad that we had not even tried the food or gone out properly but I am still recovering from my fall and needed to rest as much as possible. So we got the bus to Rijeka and by some stroke of luck I asked a woman on the bus where the train ...

... you have been warned!!

He reluctantly agreed and we spent some time in our room just being lazy. I needed time to recover from my traumatic experience earlier that day after all! Witek got wrapped up in a movie on the MGM channel and I set myself up on the balcony with a glass of wine and potted around on the internet and did some blogging.

While on the internet I did some research on Trip Advisor on where to eat in Bled and actually found that the place next door that ...

The last few days have gone by so quickly! Lake Bled in Slovenia was spectacular and definitely lived up to all that we had heard. There was a church called the Church of the Assumption on a little island right in the middle of the lake, and a castle perched high up in the hills. A lot of people had taken gondola rides or were rowing boats themselves across the lake when we arrived right at sunset ...

... around us we managed to reach the island. We were so wet when we got there we thought we may aswell go for a swim. Swimming in a thunderstorm is an extermelyt ionteresting experince for sure... When we got back to dry land and the storm had passed on the sun came out again and we still had alot of time to kill and lots of petrol in the tank. By a process of pointing to a random place on our map we decided to try and drive up a mountain :P ...

... of 400 m. It was very hot but every where I looked it was beautiful and I found myself so very grateful to be as sore and tired as I was, exactally where I was, after a long shower and a sit with my legs up for a bit. I am certain that tommorrow will be a bit better and that is enough for me now.

... t quite so busy as you had thought. That is, if you can ignore that damn 'wish bell' in the church, which is constantly rung throughout the day by those that take the gondola ride out to the island, and really gets on your nerves after a while. I blame the pope. A short walk from the lake (if that wasn't enough to draw people to Bled) is the stunning Vintgar Gorge. For some reason, I did the walk back to front and walked upstream, which I think is a much better way of ...
