    Last country, Slovenia

    August 13, 2019 in Slovenia ⋅ ⛅ 25 °C

    Big day today
    As we drove Genti told us Slovenia was the first country to gain independence from Yugoslavia, setting the example for other countries. It has been part of the EU since 2004 and is one of the most developed countries in Europe. It feels much more "Western" and richer than some of the other countries.

    We visited a Prancing horse stud, "Lipizzaner" horses. They had a riding school and also a museum. Beautiful horses and lovely old stables and barns. These horses are born black and turn white

    After lunch we go so the incredible Postojina Caves. You ride into the cave system for 2 km on a wee train, then a walking tour of another 2.5 km through the most amazing caverns and formations. The cave is 2 million years old and 25 km long.

    Lovely Ljubljana is our home tonight
