Those of you who know our prior travels to Slovenija will recognize this location: Lake Bled. It’s one of my favorite in the world because it is so surreal and beautiful. Only about 45 minutes from downtown Ljubljana, it’s an amazing lake tucked in among the Julian alps, being forever watched over on one side by Triglav, the highest Alpine peak in Slovenija, and on the other side by a castle, with an isolated church on a tiny island in the middle. Larry and I came for the first time on our honeymoon, and again a year later on our first anniversary trip. I will always need to make a stop at Bled each time I visit Slovenija.

Unfortunately the skies were overcast the day we drove up there so the Alps are obscured in the distance, but the pictures are still gorgeous.

After we left Bled, we went to check out Lake Bohinj, another beautiful Alpine lake just up the road. It was getting late and we were losing light but Larry took some beautiful shots, as usual.

On our way back to town, we stopped in Bled again just to view the island at night. So pretty. Until next time.
