Sorry I have not blogged for a while. We did not have Internet connection. Yesterday we took the longest ride possible and it was sorta fun as we stopped on the way at this town and we walked around the lake. The town was called Bled in Slovenia. And then we came to the Alps and we stayed in the room while my parents went to get information and find a place for dinner. And then we went for dinner at this pizza place and it was a good restaurant with good pizza.
Today we went hiking in the Alps. We went to this one place where you walk to this waterfall - the walk was not very interesting but the waterfall was very interesting. The second hike was more fun than the waterfall and we saw a gorge and a very cool valley. It was more nature and not steps (more mountain-goatie) so I enjoyed it a lot more. And then we went Swimming. Ben and daddy dived off the high dive diving board into the river. I was standing on the steps on the way down watching the two nut balls jumping off the jumping board and when everyone was out I got in and dunked. The water was "100 degrees below zero".
Good Night.
Good to hear from you guys again. I'm amazed you have internet connection in the ALPS... You did say the ALPS, right????? WOW! You'll have to go back there and ski some day. Even though the water was 100 degrees below 0, I'm guessing it just wasn't quite skiing weather. So mountains, and gorges and valleys "OH MY"... (kind of like the line from the Wizard of Oz). And the Italians have found there way to the Slovenian Alps with the good pizza. Thank goodness, Any ice cream???? Keep enjoying all that beautiful nature, which I guess includes those lovely "nut balls jumping off the jumping board" into the lakes and waterfalls. What a picture you paint for us!!! We love you and miss you and can hardly wait to hug you in a few days.
ReplyDeleteSarah . . I really love the way you describe things. You have a quiet understated manner . . "these nut balls" and "100 degrees below zero." I thought the Alps were in Switzerland, but what do I know. Please tell me that all these pizzas
ReplyDeleteyou're eating have something more on them besides cheese. How boring. Do you think your parents would lend you and your mature brother to us for future traveling purposes?
