So I'm in my final city, Ljubljana, and I've learned how to say it as well! It really is very pretty, with its small river, several bridges, trees and flowers and bars and cafe's next to it all. It's pretty small as well and doesn't take long before you get into the outskirts.
My train from Zagreb was delayed on the way here, however it meant that I got chatting to a Romanian girl who was travelling to meet a friend, after staying with a friend in Zagreb and then staying with a friend in Belgrade - she seemed to have friends all over eastern europe!
Have had some lovely pizza while here and last night was out with a swedish, american and australian guy along with a finnish girl, had two for one cocktails in a skeleton bar where they have skeletons behind glass cases on the wall, before having beers elsewhere and then going to a club called Bacchus, which was ok. A good night though.
Visited the market yesterday, which has an array of fruits and vegetables, apples, cabbages, strawberries, asparagus, figs and onions, as well as clothes and antiques. It is right next to the cathedral and so you feel that it must have been here for centuries, and by the look of the swarthy men and bent old ladies you wonder if they've been there for centuries as well.
The cathedral is painted all over and the organ and other sculptures are all gilded. It's incredibly beautiful. And the old town hall is also quite pretty.
Today I found a piece of roman wall dating from 15AD from the old settlement of Emona which stood here, before going to the history museum which contained lots of artifacts as well as a hoard of coins found five years ago and was pretty interesting.
Between the two I happened across a couple of Swiss girls who I had met in the Zagreb hostel, who were just about to have something to eat, so I joined them and it turned out to be curry which was pretty tasty. The weather has turned a little today for the first time, only in terms of the fact that it hasn't been blanket sun, but it is still pretty warm. I hope to visit the castle in the next couple of days and will bring my final post after that.
