Wednessday March 31

What a great day it was here at Lake Bled. I will prefice this whole experience by saying it is raining and 40 for the high so make the best of it.

We had a slow start to the day , had to go to the bank and cash in $ for euros, eat breakfast try and find the correct adapter for the computer as I purchased the combined adapter that would not work with the computer and then figure out fun things to do. With all the tasks completed let the fun begin.. With raincoats and rainpants, (I thought I was camping or sailing) we started out to discover the beauty of the area.

The hike up to the Grand Castle took teresa and I only about 15 minutes, the boys chose the comfort of the car. Once at the Castle we had a big history lesson of how it was built, the year it was built 1010 and redone 1500 and how it is currently operating.

The views were beutiful of the island and Greg did well at saboring a bottle of sparkling wine and I even created a video. The video will come when I have time to put it on You Tube.

From here we took the car down the road about 30 km past a beautiful alpine lake called Lake Bohinj.The lake is very isolated and the mountains truly dipped into the lake like massive walls.

We finally arrived at our destination called Slap Savaca, we hiked about 20 minutes through the forest and ended up at a beautiful water fall. The picture does not do it justice the force and amount of water was really cool. We ended the day and prepared for a lovely dinner over where Teresa and Greg are staying.

The dinner was the best and can't thank Teresa and Greg enough for the complimentary dinner and great company. I think we are on the road for great fun and great food and great company.
