Escaping Italy!

Ljubljana

Our first evening in Ljubljana, we hired bicycles and had a quick whizz around the city - compared to all our previous stops, Ljubljana is miniscule, which means it's easy to see it in a limited amount of time!

After riding around in a big circle, we pottered down to the Dragon Bridge - one of Ljubljana's main attractions! Slightly underwhelming from a distance, but the dragons were fun up close.

After a quick ramen and crepe, we called it a night.

The next morning, we hopped on our bikes and headed over to the castle!

The walk up to the top was beautiful, with a stunning view of the city and wonderful greenery!

We hopped on the FUN-icular back down the hill, and explored the myriad of dragon-themed shops below!

After lunch, we pottered over to explore the zoo - we both left with mixed feelings, particularly over the single giraffe and elephant in small enclosures. However, lovely to see some reindeer and overall a good afternoon!

And after a pleasingly beige roasted pork, it was time to bid Ljubljana farewell!
