How not to travel – 4 countries in a few days
Ok,
Well, we have done a lot of driving lately….and been across 4 countries (not really recommended if you want to actually see stuff – lol)!!
First we left Vienna for Bratislava, we spent the day walking around looking at the castle and the town, all very pretty, but as it got later we decided we were keen to move on, so we headed out towards Budapest in the afternoon, although because it was getting late, we stopped at Gyor and found somewhere to stay. Gyor was a bit of a gem, a really sweet place, we got a little bit of afternoon light to look around before retiring for the night in out hotel:
Then in a huge change of events, we all had a bit of a talk and decided that we would ditch the idea of Romania for Italy…… so we awoke early, got some fresh bread for brekky, and head towards Italy, although, it wouldn’t be a real trip without some stop offs along the way! We decided we wanted to check out Croatia first, however due to time constraints, we couldn’t go down the coast as I would have loved, instead we checked out Zagreb. On the way, I saw a Croatian chicken! No one would let me say hi, so all I have to show is a blurry photo:
Due to the lack of information we had on Croatia (we never planned to come here), we drove around Zagreb, looked around and basically headed back out. Which leaves us here in Ljubljana. We arrived late, found a place to stay and headed into the centre for something to eat, and oh my, this would have to be the most romantic place ever (Well, that I have seen), we are staying where the water flows through the city, and all the restaurants have outside seating with lots of fairy lights, cobblestones, old buildings and candles everywhere…. just perfect. We will be staying in Slovenia for a little longer than our normal stops, mainly because we are tired of driving and it’s soooooo pretty (Also we were told before we left that we have to see Bled and the caves)!!
