Breakfast in Italy, lunch in Austria, dinner in Slovenia. We left Venice and after the usual comedy of errors involving 3 motorcyclists looking for petrol, we lunched in Arnoldstein, Austria, so Donny could visit Austria, then rode over a pass into Podkoren, Slovenia and bought our one week vignettes allowing us access to the tollways. Then into Ljubljana to meet our apartment host, a super nice guy, as was our waiter at the restaurant he recommended. I like Slovenia already.
Lost in Ljubljana. After two large beers in a bar by the river and a third share in 2 litres of excellent house white in a Slovenian restaurant, we found our way back to our apartment 1.5km away. A feat of inebriated navigation matched only in Nice 2 weeks ago. I have even learned to spell Ljubljana, and pronounce it. It’s a lovely place.
English is the second language here and the English language TV has Slovenian subtitles, perfect.
We booked our ferry passage from Dubrovnik to Bari on Friday night. Our host Andraz introduced us to Splitwise, an app to account for expenditure amongst a group if people. Perfect.
