Ljubljana - a place to go to this summer

The place to be at the moment could well be Ljubljana, Slovenia. Finally the weather has decided to resume its normal activities. the month of April and May were very cold, and that is not what we are used to here. Look at the pictures above and they show you what we have come to appreciate. Flowers have blossomed and are carpeting the parks with their bright colours, and look at that baby crow. A sign of new life. And let me tell you that under the sun, Ljubljana becomes a totally different place, a place full of life that is well worth visiting. Alternatively, you can drive down the coast and enjoy the very pretty albeit minuscule coastal area of Slovenia.
