I have not been posting for a while-due to the fact that nothing much has been happening in my life. work-home-work and the cycle over and over again. HOWEVER this past May, I had a chance to use up my 5 days of vacation from last year. I decided to get together with my dear friends Karmen&Helder in Karmen's native Slovenia. Loved seeing them and used the opportunity to go for a kick ass ride to Vrsic pass and many more OUTSTANDING places. So here come the photos :
This is me Karmen and Helder in Kamnik a quaint city to the north of where Karmen used to live. Very picturesque and interesting.
From here we went to the nearby spring of the river Kamnica. Check the color of the water-it is amazing, cold and you can drink it from the spring.
After this memorable "pick nick" the following day, we visited Ljubljana-the capital of Slovenia. Me and Helder could not resist visiting the local DUCATI showroom and try out some hardware.
That is how the beast sounds like
That same evening we went to see Ljubljana by night and here is what it looks like.
So after these wonderful few days with Karmen & Helder I continued my exploration by visiting two amazing lakes. Lake Bohinj and Bled. Both are well known for their beauty world wide. And as you are already accustomed to here are some photos.
It was a bit rainy, that did not dampen my spirit since I continued to head north to the well known ski resort of Kranjska Gora, a place I visited with my parents some 20 or more years ago. It looks lovely, I felt like visiting an old friend who became more mature and had some new things to show me.
I spent the evening walking around, reminiscing the times I was there and promising to myself that I will be back with company the next time around. Sleeping was amazing, I was put to bed by the chirping of birds and woken up the same way.
The following morning. I set to conquer the famous Vrsic pass, at 1611m above sea level. It was amazing to realize that less then 100 m from where I was sleeping was the road that led me to Vrsic pass. And it started like this.
After an amazing ride up to the summit, I rested and look how it looks like.
I had to sit down and gather my thoughts and impressions, made a short video-in Serbian to explain where I am going next.
This will end up mu story for today. There is much more to show and tell, so keep reading and looking, promise it would not be long till the next post.
