Whoa, Bled is absolutely stunning. Cant say much more than that. Wish I could upload my pictures but Ill be ithout a proper computer for the next few days. Anywho, beautiful lake set in the middle of the Julian Alps with a small idland in the middle of it with a church on it. Small little rowboats go out there with loads of tourists (didnt do it myself, thought Id save my euros) and newlywed couples ring the bell for luck. AND theres a castle built into the side of a cliff that overlooks the whole lake. So after my 80 minute busride from Ljubljana I sent my bags to the "hostel" and wandered up to the castle, back down to the supermarket and had a picnic by the lake (very short mind you since it was FEReezing). Walked around the whole lake which took about two hours and ran into this nice Kiwi couple that I met in Mostar, Bosnia. We all went on the same tour including the British guys that I traveled to Belgrade with. We caught up a bit and then I wandered back into town where the "hostel" owner picked me up and took me to his house. I booked the place cause it had great reviews, especially about a nice home cooked meal that his wife makes but there was no one else there so I decided only to stay on night. Good thing too since it rained today. Caught a bus in the morning back to Ljubljana to travel down to the coastal town of Piran.
