Zidani Most, Slovenia

If we thought Austria was beautiful, then Slovenia was enchanting. Quiet, shy almost. Sun shining through clouds in just the right way on a hill with an old church, surrounded by towering lush jungle-like mountains. Rivers, with water so aqua. Our stop, it turned out, was at Zidani Most, not Lubljana. And Zidani Most is not a town, it's a bridge (Most means bridge in several slavic languages). A beautiful, old bridge, but at 4pm, our camera was running low on bateries and we were hungry! Having spent our last $2 on a coffee of the train, we had the choice of either a stray $5 American note or ATM. We thought the former was perfect because we could spend $5 worth on groceries and it would see us through to the next day, the latter would have been an act of desperation seeing it costs us $5 to get us money out and we were only spending 2 hours in Zidani Most. Alas, however, Zidani Most was a charming, one-pub town with no ATM or change office. So, we made some milk for afternoon tea, looked around and enjoyed the peace till our train arrived to take us to Zagreb. We spent a few hours in Zagreb, bought dinner with our newly aquired cash, ate with an Aussie girl we met on the train who was friendly and a little stressful and then settled in for the night in our sleeper cabin and rode to Spilt.

It was wet enough to make it worthwhile buying a rainjacket for Jodi. The Albergue here is said to be...
