Slovenia - 6 September, Saturday

Move day. Dull start developing into rain. The Chinese had pretty much cleared the breakfast buffet, eating half and making the rest into packed lunches.

Did last walk along lake as they prepared for a triathlon event. Spoke to people who'd just arrived from Kranjska Gora, saying the weather had been bad and they'd run out of things to do. Not promising.
Minibus on time, making its way through the gloom to KG. Checked into Hotel Kompas and a nice room with view of the mountains. Walked into town to the accompaniment of the ever-present Harley Davidson motor bikers (big convention over the border in Austria), eventually finding a nice restaurant for pasta + lasagne lunches.


Asked about walks at the tourist office, but a not very helpful lady. Headed for Podkoren, at first along the noisy road as the bikers ground their way up the mountain. Turned off on route 4, which was much better, very rural and peaceful among the forest trees.

Back to the hotel by 4.30 for a cuppa and rest before the evenings entertainments.

Went to Devil Bar in the evening after meal at the hotel, for quiz night. Very light hearted including prize for best paper plane - Hilary's. Teamed up with earnest Robert and slightly twitchy Janet, who were amazed at our dingbat solving and mental gymnastics.
