For today they predict rain all day again, so we decide to take a car ride through the mountains. During our car ride through the mountains, we do reach a point where it is dry and will remain dry for a while. So we choose a not too long hike. The first drops fall in the last 200 meters, but we still

Yesterday it rained cats and dogs in almost all of Slovenia, so we went to the Postojna Cave.
Today the sun is shining brightly again 🌞
We are taking a walk by the Planšar Lake in Jezersko. You can see from the mountain tops that it snowed there yesterday. Apparently, it was the first time in almost 20

I am known for often having good weather during holidays or weekend getaways, but sometimes I surprise myself 🫣😂 .
Rain is predicted everywhere all day, so it will be hiking with our ponchos on.
What do you think? About 5 km before arriving at our destination, it turned dry. During our walk, it remained

Today we are going a bit further away from our hotel and will take a hike from Tolmin along the Soča river.
The sun is shining brightly, but it is muggy.
The Soča river in Slovenia is world-renowned for its unique, intensely emerald-green to turquoise-blue color. This striking hue, which has earned the

Today we visit the Vintgar gorge. Beautiful nature again 🤩.
Took so many photos, but couldn't choose and uploaded them all 🫣.
Before we went to the gorge, we first had a drink at Gostilna Vintgar and ate the local delicacy Kremšnita.
Tip: you have to reserve access to the Vintgar gorge. You reserve an

1st time Slovenia, 2nd day and already in love with this country.
What beautiful nature and friendly people too.
It's wonderfully quiet now, few tourists and a nice temperature of 20°C. Just enjoying it!

At the end of the afternoon, we take a circular walk around Lake Bled. Of course, we also settle down on a terrace, and at the end of the hike, we had a nice meal at Centralna Postaja.

From Sobeč, we walk along the Sava river to the old town of Radovljica. There we settle down on a terrace where we enjoy ourselves 🍻
A beautiful walk with sunshine and a temperature of 19°C. The humidity is high, though.

Months ago, when I booked this weekend, I already had a foresight: that it would stay dry around Volendam, Hoorn, and Edam 😂.
On the way home, we took a walk through Edam. Also beautiful, but not particularly special after Hoorn. A better order would have been: Volendam, Edam, and then Hoorn. But we

Today we're walking back to the historic center of Hoorn. I'm not one for city breaks, but I can highly recommend Hoorn. It's a truly beautiful city!
And we're also lucky with the weather. It stayed dry all day, and we even enjoyed coffee in the sunshine 🌞.
Tired but happy after this beautiful day, we're now putting our feet up.

From Volendam, we drive on to Hoorn, where our B&B is for the next two nights.
We take a short walk there.
Hoorn has a beautiful historic center with many lovely facades.
The wind is making it quite cold, so we stop for a hot chocolate in the Grote Kerk (Great Church), which has been converted into a hotel

We're spending the weekend in North Holland and are going to Volendam today. On the way there, we had constant rain, and when we arrived in Volendam, it was still drizzling. It was quite chilly, so we had a hot chocolate first. Meanwhile, it had dried up, and we stayed dry.

Today I had another lovely walk with Corrie and Leo.
There's a lot of maintenance going on, so in some places it's muddy because of the tire tracks.
We even came across a hunting club. It was great to see those enthusiastic dogs.

Still a few hours left before we fly home again, so we're taking a walk through the old town of Ljubljana.
