I Love Slovakia!

What a great day! Pouring rain but that didn't stop us. Had a huge breakfast around the corner from our hostel and then headed into town. Went to the Bratislava Castle and museum and it was fabulous. Spent three hours there and climbed up to the bell tower. Walked down to St. Michaels church (last coronation of Ferdinand II occurred there) and then to St. Michael's Gate. We found a great wine bar called Trunk across the Bloominthal church where I was baptized and had some fabulous Slovak wine. I had a wonderful St. Laurent from Ludwig vineyards 2015 red. We took a tour of Bloominthal church and then went to dinner to the Klastorska Pivnica (Monks Cellar). All the beer is made by the monks. Had some fabulous borscht and a pagac (bacon biscuit) and some awesome Ivan dark beer. Service was awesome and we had a great time. Put on about 10 k walking today.Читать далее
