It was a nice cool morning after yesterday’s very hot weather. We got organised and booked the Postojna caves tour at 12.30. Arriving at the car park there was a large traffic jam getting in as they were running out of space. It didn’t take too long until we were put in a field. It…

We were moving campsites today but wanted to see an interesting village on the way called Stanjel. The guidebook said it was made from cut stone. We saw some beautiful hilltop villages on the way. We arrived and saw the castle turrets and walls as we went up the hill. It was very hot and…

We all piled into Lisa and Sean’s van and set off up the Soca River towards Tolmin. The views with the mountains and green/blue river were lovely. We arrived at car park 1 at the Tolmin Gorge and were shooed away to car park 2 as we were a motorhome. However that wasn’t so bad…

The day was much brighter so the first thing we got done was our washing. We have a nice little garden area to ourselves so we made full use of it and hung it all out. We then cycled into town again to check out what we had missed yesterday. First of all was the…

It was a very dull rainy morning so we didn’t hurry to get going. First job was to pick up beer from the small Maister craft brewery that we visited. We went over the river and it was truly in spate after all the rain we have had. When we got on our way and…

It was very cloudy as we left Bohinj. Glenn captured the mountain tops with his new camera. We enjoyed the interesting roads through the villages – some extremely narrow between the houses – not designed for motorhomes or trucks. We drove past Lake Bled – much quieter on a rainy Monday morning than a sunny…
