Ljubljana Part 3

On the west side of the water there is a big square with a sign that said “The area with Ljubljana’s own weather” and a picture of rain clouds and an umbrella and I was so confused. I thought it would be a fountain or something and couldn’t figure out what it was talking about and then Raymond pointed out on the wires above was a sprinkler so it was raining in the square! From the other side from where we entered in the light you could see the “rain” so that was fun. Then a ton of interesting sculptures!

When we were wandered we spied on all the places for dinner also and man there were too many good looking food options! Too many I really wanted to try and not enough time to try them all today so we decided we will still stick with the coming back on Friday plan (when I originally planned to come here) and cut something else out (I had a day where we were going to do this kayaking tour in a mine in the morning which looked fun, but then I saw video of it and it is really in pitch black except your headlamp and mostly tiny tunnels you paddle through and I said no thanks. But I didn’t really put anything else into that time spot and the rest of the day was an easy hike that didn’t look amazing, but since we were there why not as it was in the same area, but now we will just cut that too unless we happen to have time). So we settled on this fancy Vegan place for tonight which was so good! And I am so full right now!! But we got the Slovenian three course meal and a 4 course taster menu and everything was amazing. We had a tiny starter of fermented bell peppers with Vegan cheese filling, richet - a traditional Slovenian barley stew with smoked tofu, sunflower ravioli with saffron and spinach (these were so good and an interesting flavor!), cabbage rolls with nuts rice and herb filling with tomato sauce and mashed potatoes, and ”ribs” with roasted veggies (the ribs had “bones” made of compressed veggies which were very chewy, but good), and finally a chocolate tart and a traditional tarragon cake. Their cake was so good Raymond even preferred it to the chocolate tart!

Phew! All the delicious foods today! Plus all the fun wandering! I am looking forward to coming back and spying on more things!

I know we haven’t been here that long, but I am really enjoying Slovenia. The people have been so friendly and happy it has been great. I forgot to mention yesterday since I was so tired, but there were a lot of people out hiking and I don’t think I have ever seen so many other hikers laughing so much and just having the best time! We kept passing groups of people just laughing and joking around and they kept trying to include us and I was just like I have no idea what it are saying, but it makes me happy you all are having such a good time! Not that people are usually miserable, but they are not usual so joyful when we are hiking. So much laughing and fun! But that has been really everywhere everyone has been so nice and happy. I wasn’t expecting that so it is a nice surprise. We shall see if they are like that everywhere :)

Today was a great day even though this morning was just chores. Tomorrow we head back to where we were and continue on our adventures!Читать далее
