Slovenia

Slovenia

In Slovenia I have stepped into an episode of Planet Earth. I go to caves with dazzling crystals, ceilings so high, and me so small. The country is so beautiful. I travel to the sleepy town of Bled. Tourist season is over. It is too cold to swim in the lake so I wander through the country side stopping every few miles to read my book amongst the clang of cowbells. I am looking at the Julian Alps. I walk along a gorge with light blue/turqouise water. I eat sausage and custard cake. I have befriended a Slovanian who lets me wander but comes to Ljubljana to take me to a hockey game and relax like old friends. He reminds me of Mark.
