Day 22 Slovenia Wrap up
Time to explore the Ljubljana Central Market and a few more museums, taste a few more wines, return to Vienna, Covid test, check-in for our flights and go sleep in our own beds. I'm even looking forward to exercising off the excesses of this extended vacation.
For the last few days there's been an EU mucky-muck staying at the same hotel. As grateful as I am for the validation of choosing a prime location, the drama surrounding this individual is intense. Armed police, personal guards, several fancy black cars constantly blocking the front entrance. Traffic is blocked in either direction when Sir or Madam Big-wig enters or exits the building. Like I said, DRAMA. I miss the farm.
Ljubljana is a very green city: electric buses, recycling bins, extensive pedestrian zone... Watch out for the pervasive Wolt food delivery bikes and scooters. They will mow you down.
Our architecture, museum and gallery tour was interesting, though not extensive. One has to appreciate the history of this region which has been through so many migrations and conquerors.
Tomorrow we trek back to Vienna, a six-hour train ride. We've got one final day to take in sights and souvenirs.
