Into Slowenia..... Ljubljana and Lake Bled

Famous Dragon Bridge

 
Dragon Bridge is the most fairytale of fairytale bridges in the delightfully fairytale city of Ljubljana, Slovenia.




 
Love emanates even from the city's name, which sounds very similar to the Slovenian word 'ljubljena', meaning 'the beloved', and many people believe that this is not just a coincidence.




" If you tell a Slovenian that you are going to visit Lake Bled, he will tell you to first try the cream cake because it is so delicious, and second, take a stroll around the Lake, which is very near to many cafes. After enjoying the special dessert, a walk may be welcome.  Many Slovenian visitors to the Lake Bled area look forward to sampling the Bled Cream Cake, which is a specialty of that area.  For those who like desserts, save you calories for this luscious cream cake.  It is made with wholesome ingredients like eggs, cream and milk with a small amount of sugar.  This dish is also known in parts of Austria and Germany" 


the birds love it too....
