“A journey is like a marriage. The certain way to go wrong is to think you can control it.” – John Steinbeck
Overall we had really nice weather but the first day at Lake Bohinj we woke up to this!Ok, we can handle a bit of moisture!We started with umbrellas but quickly transitioned into waterproof jackets. We were determined to walk around the entire lake!It’s hard to tell from this pic but the path was pretty washed out here. We had to scramble down about 20 ft and then back up again. We’d gone too far to turn back. By now, it had been about 2 1/2 hours and we were cold and wet. BUT we did know there was a boat dock up ahead. So, POR (press on regardless).We ended up walking around 2/3 of the lake but swallowed our pride and took the boat back. Our B&B had an actual drying room for wet boots and clothes, that we took full advantage of. I’m starting to think it rains/snows here more than advertised. ☺️The following day started out cloudy so we weren’t sure we’d see much when we took this cable car up – hoping to see Mt Triglav.Pretty mountain range.And we did have nice views of Lake Bohinj 😊I loved seeing the sun in the valley.We also walked to a neighboring village – Stara Fuzina – where I spotted this “art” in the main square.But on closer inspection we realized it was an old well!Then we saw this explanation. A little tough to read but possible when zoomed in. Just like the sign says, cow prints!I really loved this quaint village with a notice that said it all 💚If you recall, while in Italy we spotted so many Madonnas. But in Slovenia where 80% of the population is Catholic we saw several shrines to saints, even in the smallest of villages. We also saw many, many crucifixes.We went into quite a few old churches and I found this fascinating. Look at these stations of the cross, juxtaposed to one another.This is one interpretation of station eleven in a church.And this is the same station – different, very old church – different interpretation.Station 12Versus station 12
We stopped to listen to this woman while in Venice. I just didn’t want to leave her out!

What troopers you too are! I can’t imagine trying to walk around the lake in the rain. Beautiful view of it from the gondola!
