Bled
Because of the covid 19 and all
restrictions referring the virus transmission, we decided to spend our annual
holidays at home country, in Slovenia. We were thinking of sports holidays with
a lot of cycling and mountaineering. We like camping, so we were going to camp
and move around Slovenia as we used to do in the last few years. Because we
live in western part of Slovenia, we decided to go to the eastern part of the
country. It’s true that Slovenia is small, but a lot of secret places are still
uncovered. I mean, Slovenia is not just Bled, Piran and Postojna cave. Here are
a lot of green places, which are very beautiful.
I tried to convince myself that it would be
a great holiday, but when my husband started the car, tears came into my eyes.
This is not a vacation. In fact we are staying at home. I hate covid 19. I was
planning holidays somewhere in the north Europe, discovering new places,
meeting new people… It couldn’t be true.
As I’ve mentioned, we decided to visit
unknown places in Slovenia and to have sport and healthy holidays, but we broke
our promises in the first few hours. I was in a bad mood, so we stopped in Bled,
maybe the most known town in Slovenia. We went on a walk around the lake and
spoiled us with cream slices.
I was at Bled about twenty five years ago
and I’ve already forgot how it looks like. This year it wasn’t crowded thanks
to covid.
Jezersko
Namenjeni smo bili na Jezerko, miren in zelen kraj na severu Slovenije, kjer smo biciklirali po dolini, obiskali Planšarsko jezero, poskusili njihovo mineralno vodo, ki je zelo okusna in šli do Ankovih slapov.
We were headed to Jezersko, peaceful and
green place in the north of Slovenia. We cycled around the valley, visited the Planšarsko jezero (lake), tasted their
own mineral water, which is very good and walked to Anko waterfalls.
Občudovali smo lesene hiše z rožami na oknih in urejene vrtove z lesenimi ograjami.
We also admired wooden houses with window flowers and tidy gardens with wooden fences.
Margi - I understand your feelings. Even though we may live in a beautiful place (your pictures of Slovenia are stunning), there is part of all of us that longs to visit new places and meet new people. Or to visit places that we have been to many times and still enjoy. We were very sad not to be able to take a family vacation to the Cayman Islands this spring, and it looks like we will not be able to travel to the UK this fall to visit my in-laws. I am trying to have faith that this opportunity will return to us in the future! Thanks for sharing your wonderful pictures with everyone at Mosaic Monday!

ReplyDeleteIt's a good year to have a stay-cation near home. Sometimes we forget what wonderful places are nearby. - Margy
ReplyDeleteI hate Covid-19 too. I feel that it has robbed precious time off my life. Hubby and I were just about to embark on our traveling dreams that we had placed on the back burner for so many, many years and this stupid pandemic happens.
