The Worlds Coolest 15 Year Old

This is the blog of my travel through Europe which started in August 2005 with a 37 day Contiki tour through Western Europe, followed by 11 months living in England and Scotland, before taking off for three months travel through Eastern Europe with some friends. After spending the last couple of months in England at the pub, its now time to head to Ireland!

Lake Bled

A day trip from Ljubljana is Lake Bled, just an hour or two on the bus from town. There isnt a lot to do there, but the lake itself is amazing. Theres an island in the middle with an old church type building, while the castle overlooks the lake from a hilltop.

Now this would be an incredibly romantic setting for anyone, but unfortunately I was stuck there with Greg and Dan. Not exactly my cup of tea!

The place was clearly a favourite among the Brits, as there was a very traditional Slovenian pub there called, er.....the George Best Bar.

I could see this being a place to come and relax for a few days, but dont expect too much excitement!
