Slovenia - 7 September, Sunday

Sunshine! Started cool but progressed into a lovely warm day. So much for the pessimistic weather forecasts.
Waited for the welcome session at Hotel Lek, deciding to go on the schnapps walk later and picking up tips about walks.
Decided on Walk 2, which started near our hotel and climbed up into the woods. Lovely route and very quiet at first. Stopped for drinks after an hour or so, very friendly guy who offered us something with loca blueberries that turned out to be a big slice of strudel.

On along a quiet track overlooking the valley then down to the river, which looked like the one at Bovec, blue and fast flowing.

Called in at a bar for refreshments before heading back to the hotel for a shower and snooze. Early dinner then out for the schnapps walk.  This involved a 20 min walk to a traditional Slovenian bar, where we all sat outside and tried three different types of schnapps accompanied by the unfortunately named local delicacy krapi.
