Maribor Part 1

Today we got up and headed to Slovenia! It was about 3.5 hour drive to our first stop - Maribor. We arrived just about lunchtime so we headed off to find some food and it was so good! We had a squash lasagna which was super filling and good, and a large salad with “vegan meat” which was grain patty and that was super super tasty! It was so hot out, but the salad was so refreshing! And both things are way bigger than we expected so it was a giant lunch!

Were then started to explore the town and stopped in a bakery and found some delicious looking treats! A strawberry bun, an apple cinnamon pastry, and a cinnamon roll. We took a little piece of each to try…and they were very disappointing! Not sweet at all! Oh well.

We wandered over to the Basilica of Our Mother of Mercy and spied inside and it was so pretty! So colorful! The pictures do not look as nice as it was! Like a rainbow everywhere and the lights had glass flower covers that were gorgeous and it was one of the prettiest churches I think were have ever been to. Or one of my favorites anyways. Then we had a walk along water which was really nice, but oh my goodness it was hot out in the sun and I was dying. It said it was only 27, but in the sun with the ground reflecting even more heat back at you it was almost too much! But really beautiful.Läs mer
