After a good night’s sleep I went on to begin my trip. The hotel I slept in was very close to Lake Bled so I just walked over to the very beautiful lake and started walking around it. I also went up to the castle watching it.
If I try to describe the rest of the places I visited, I will quickly run out of words to say how beautiful these places were, so I’ll just name the names and you can see for yourselves in the pictures: Vintgar Gorge, Kozjak waterfall and a small part of the Soca river.
While my driving has improved, I still can’t drive like the locals here, who drive 90kph in mountain roads that I don’t dare go over 50 in. I usually stop on the side of the road and let them pass me before they get upset.
Finding a place to stay for the night was a small challenge – most places rent apartments and the owners refuse to rent to a single person even if he/she is willing to pay the price (“it’s impossible” is the answer.) I wonder why that is.
Today my trip was a little messy in terms of planning. While I enjoy the scenic driving very much, I don’t think my route is as optimal as it could be. I have to plan my days here better.
