🇸🇮🇸🇮🇸🇮 May 22, 2026 - Ljubljana, Slovenia and Lake Bled

My first time visit to Slovenia. Not as widely known to the world I think. My impressions are that it is a singularly amazing country. A new country (1991) in an old nation. One of the greenest countries in the world in terms of the environment and natural beauty. Somewhat taller than most, the people and fit and friendly. City tour and then off to Lake Bled.

Lake Bled tour and boat ride to the church on Slovenia’s best known island (and only natural one)



A selection of wildflowers 


Eurasian Blackbird (Thrush) the European equivalent of our Robin and a marvellous singer … somewhat tame

More Ljubljana to come …
