Bled, Slovenia

Bled Castle.  Pretty great location, but I would hate to be on the construction team.

They just give away alcohol all over the place.  Renee got a little too much...

Bled is famous for rowing competitions, ridiculously green mountains, a gorgeous emerald green lake and this little island with a church on it.

Another view from a small peak.  The snails and slugs on the trail were ENORMOUS!

The water was sooo clear.  You could see forever down into it.  This one is from a rowboat we went out on.

Inside the church on the island there is a rope you can pull to ring the "lucky bell." 

Scrumptious Slovenian pastries. 

Vintgar Gorge.  This little wooden bridge crosses the river half a dozen times and clings to cliffs throughout the gorge.  It was wonderful.

Waterfall at the end of Vintgar Gorge
