Third visit to Bled...and on to Goriska Brda

Last weekend, I took the train with Rebecca and an Australian named Chris, to Bled.  We had a Pad Thai Party at Miha's (Rebecca's boyfriend) house.  He lives in a village very close to Bled.  The next day, we took a trip to an amazing wine country region close to the border of Italy, called Goriska Brda.  It is about a 1.5 hr drive directly, but Miha took us on the scenic route, over the mountains.  So it took us about 4 hours to get there, but it was absolutely amazing.  This day was probably up there with being one of my best days in Slovenia.

Most of these awesome pictures were taken by Miha, and they wouldn't be this awesome if it wasn't for his fabulous tripod.  Because Miha took so many great pictures, these are only from the first part of our trip.  You'll have to wait to see the rest another day.  But, since I've been so great at posting on my blog lately, maybe you won't have to wait toooo long! 

This is a picture of Miha's village.   Amazing, right?

The Julian Alps.  We drove over these mountains.

Beautiful, clear, clean.  The Soca River.



So clean, you can drink it...

...or throw it.


More to come....
