These morning I woke up with a bruise of questionable origins on my arm. Some girl came in to the room, put all her stuff in and then left locking it behind her. It was about half 6. I don't think the two are related.
Around half 8 I went to the supermarket and bought a sandwich for lunch that may be ham, but might turn out to be horse. My slovenian isn't that great. Incidentally, I ate at a place last night that offered horseburgers. Not sure if it was a mistranslation or...
I then set off for the gorge. It did not take long to get there. An hour at most. Its a very easy, well sign-posted walk. I paid €4 for entry which was totally worth it. It was fantastic. The water was so clear and so blue you could walk all the way along the gorge on these old rickety wooden paths. It was so quiet because it was early morning. When I got to the other end however a massive group of possibly korean tourists had just turned up and were shouting at each other.
On the way there I encountered a group of cows running (if you can call it that) down the road towards me. I didn't know what to do. I didn't want to scare them and cause a stampede but I didn't want them to trample me. I hopped over a fence and started edging round them and hoped they just carried on going. They all stopped and watched me as I went past. I walked so slowly, scared that at any minute they would charge. The fence would not stop them. Thankfully they just started off down the road again and I was safe.
I would definitely recommend a visit there though when (and you will, coz I said so) you visit lake bled. Just dont get lost. At the end, go down the left side of the hut, not up the stairs by the toilet. Its taken me over an hour and a half to reach the end of the national park but a) I got lost and b) I was powering through so I have time to visit the lake. Its really not very far though.
I've got so many pictures, again, it looks better in real life. If you want to see extended highlights of my trip, when I get back I'll upload them somewhere. Just add yourself to the mailing list to receive the link (I'm going to send it to everyone anyway so you can't get out of it).
I'm just having a coke at the pizzeria by the exit before continuing back to Bled for lunch by the Lake.
