May 23,2013 Vienna and Slovenia

While in Vienna we visited the Hapsburg Palace and the Schrombum Palace. the Schronbrunn was much more plush than the Hofburg.In the evening we went to a Mozart and Strauss concert which was very good.After leaving we went to Bled Slovenia and spend several day there.Lake Bled is a very beautiful lake with a amazing setting..The weather wasn't cooperating so it wasn't as nice as it would have been if it was sunny.It still was picture perfect and so peaceful.There is a small church on a little island in the middle of the lake.Because of the rain we decided not to take the boat over. Instead we walked around the lake and took as many photos as I could.There isn't much to the town but people come from all
over to relax and enjoy the beautiful lake.We stayed at Lake Bled camping and it had been raining so it was pretty muddy.If it had been sunny it would have been great.We wanted to see Vintgar Gorge so we checked out of the campground and drove a few miles out of town and came to this beautiful gorge.They have a walking trail and small bridges that you walk along.The beauty of this gorge is amazing.I'll try and post some photos but can't guarantee anything.After visiting the gorge we traveled on to the town of Ljubjlana the capital of Slovenia.Slovenia is made up of mostly forests and mountains and I think it is one of my favorite countries we have visited.It is absolutely beautiful and clean.I will tell you more in another post as I get internet.Just tried to upload photos,no luck.
