Lake Bled - No words, just pictures
2023年4月22日, スロベニア ⋅ ☁️ 16 °C
I'm lying; I have to say a few words about this.
If the pictures of Ljubljana don't persuade you to come to Slovenia, then just look at these snaps.
Only 45 minutes up the road from Ljubliana is oneもっと詳しく
If Carlsberg did train stations...

Glorious late afternoon sunshine, a cold beer, and sat only two metres from the train line!
Faith in humanity restored!
2023年4月23日, スロベニア ⋅ ⛅ 21 °C
A bit convoluted this one, but bear with me.
So after a lovely walk up to the castle and back around to the city, we came across a lovely little street. We sat down for a beer at a local bar and endedもっと詳しく
Off piste in Maribor
2023年4月24日, スロベニア ⋅ 🌧 12 °C
No skiing, just a reference to the fact that not many tourists come to Maribor (I think we were the only people to get off the train!).
Very much the "2nd city" of Slovenia, behind Ljubljana,もっと詳しく
Maribor - famous for something
2023年4月25日, スロベニア ⋅ ☁️ 15 °C
Not because Maribor won the Intertoto European Cup in 2006 (notable as that was for such a small place), but because Maribor is in the Guinness Book Of World Records for having the oldest fruitもっと詳しく
Budapest - Nearly 30,000 steps in a day!
2023年4月27日, ハンガリー ⋅ ⛅ 12 °C
Actually, Jane's app showed that she did over 30k steps in the day. But that's because she is one of the few people in the world with shorter legs than me! 😂
Lovely trek around Budapest in theもっと詳しく
I'm becoming a train station spotter!

Cafe in Budapest railway station. Bit like Newport, isn't it?
Bratislava - poor man's Ljubljana
2023年4月28日, スロバキア ⋅ ☁️ 16 °C
The difference between Slovakia and Slovenia is like chalk and cheese.
Both joined the EU in 2004, but whereas Slovenia has embraced the change and benefited from it massively, Slovakia looks stuckもっと詳しく
The Thomas holiday weather curse strikes
2023年4月29日, オーストリア ⋅ ☁️ 17 °C
Vienna, and the famous Thomas holiday weather curse has struck again. Ok, it has taken nearly 4 weeks to get our first drop of proper rain, but I mean, come on, bloody typical, eh? 😁
As for Viennaもっと詳しく
Super Salzburg
2023年4月30日, オーストリア ⋅ ⛅ 14 °C
Gorgeous day here in Salzburg and the old town is beautiful. Saw Mozart's birthplace and climbed up the (very steep) hill to the castle for a great view of the town. Walked through the lovelyもっと詳しく
Best Pizza of trip so far - in Austria!
2023年4月30日, オーストリア ⋅ ⛅ 16 °C
Despite trying a few pizzas in Italy, the best of the trip so far was undoubtedly in this lovely Osteria in Salzburg. Went at just the right time to pinch a table in the sun. Bloody gorgeous.
The luckier you are, the luckier you get

Long day of travelling from Salzburg to Milan started with a cancelled train and bus replacement service. Not great you might think. BUT, it provided us with some unbelievable Alpine scenery to enjoy.もっと詳しく

So after travelling via bus and train for 10 hours from Salzburg to Milan, existing on a croissant and coffee for breakfast and a shared caprese roll grabbed in Verona train station, we were exhaustedもっと詳しく
Milan - old v new
2023年5月2日, イタリア ⋅ ☁️ 13 °C
Lovely city with a mix of old and new. The view of the Duomo and the Galería from the main square is something else (2nd picture).
Scooter City - Milan

It's fair to say they like a scooter in Milan!

The man who would be top of my list whenever people ask which 4 people from history would you invite to a dinner party.
Our new best friend

So, after receiving a recommendation of where to go this evening for somewhere to eat (thanks Cheryl Davies), unfortunately it was the other side of Milan. So we resolved to return to the lovelyもっと詳しく
Next stop: Naples and the Isle of Ischia
2023年5月3日, イタリア ⋅ ☀️ 18 °C
Actually, this post is just an excuse to include a few more pictures of a European train station. They are epic.
Today's offering is Milano Centrale. More like something out of Gladiator than a trainもっと詳しく
Oldest buildings yet - A.D. 79
2023年5月3日, イタリア ⋅ ☁️ 20 °C
I thought you hadn't seen an old building for a while, so here are a few from Ercolano, Pompeii's little brother.
Forza Napoli

We happened to be in Spain when they won the World Cup in 2010, and witnessed unbounded joy from their fans. But I honestly don't think it will will a patch on what is going to happen here in Napoliもっと詳しく
Pompeii - also from A.D. 79
2023年5月4日, イタリア
I know that no-one actually wants to see all these pics from Pompeii and Herculaneum; they are more of a personal record for Jane and I to look back on.
Lovely picture of Vesuvius, though, taken fromもっと詳しく
A funny thing happened on the way to...

On our way to Pompeii this morning and these guys jumped in the carriage and started up.
Play it loud.
Same vintage as the St Emilion Grand Cru
2023年5月4日, イタリア ⋅ ☀️ 20 °C
Possibly not!
On our way back from Pompeii we thought we'd buy a bottle of wine and a packet of crisps, and relax on the hotel terrace, which is lovely.
Couldn't find a shop anywhere. Asked someもっと詳しく
R&R on the Ile d'Ischia
2023年5月5日, イタリア
After 31 days on our feet, carrying those bloody backpacks, we have decided to decamp to Ischia for 4 days for a bit of R&R, before resuming our trek around Europe.
And look at the view we discoveredもっと詳しく

Wow! Looks amazing both. Gotta be a golf course near that Lake GT 😁
旅行者Now you mention it, Mike, it's something we have seen very little of (golf courses). Hardly seen any. Too busy eating and drinking to worry about golf, anyway! 😂
