Day 12: Lake Bled.
Today has probably been the most different day I've had so far.
I actually managed to have a lie in today, and a good thing I did too. Unfortunately it has rained pretty much all day here in Bled. I spent my morning in the bar, drinking the free shots Greg, the bar man, kept giving me (I know it was the morning! there was literally nothing else to do). After about an hour Greg felt really bad and drove me to the entrance to Vintgar gorge. Luckily it had stopped raining heavily by now so I could walk through it without getting drenched. The gorge is really pretty, and actually a nice place to walk when it's raining (if you have the right shoes, which I didn't). At the other side of the gorge Greg told me to walk to this church and he'd come and pick me up. He failed to mention that the walk was up hill through a muddy wood (it was also pouring with rain again now). Needless to say when I finally reached the church I was cold, wet and muddy! Despite this i'm glad I did it (otherwise I would have spent the whole day in the bar). After my slight ordeal Greg drove me back to the hostel. Unfortunately it started to rain heavily again when we got back so I have been here ever since.
So there's my slightly uneventful (apart from nearly being washed away in the rain) last day in Bled. Despite the awful weather I have actually had a really good time here! I now feel rejuvenated and ready to take on more of Europe! On that note, tomorrow its off to Salzburg.
