Another weekend, another trip!

So with another 4 day weekend, me and my friend Helena from uni back in Cardiff decided to go on a little 'eurotrip'!

She arrived to Austria from the Uk on the thursday, and by friday we were already in our first destination.. Udine in northern Italy!



Enjoying some more delicious italian food...



Udine is situated just some 2 hours from Klagenfurt by coach, so we enjoyed a great day out, wandering around for the day...


New day, new country! By saturday it was time to say ciao to Italy, Aufwiedersehen to Austria and
dobrodošli to Slovenia!



Slovenia is just an hour away from Klagenfurt


Helena has a friend who lives in Ljubljana, so we stayed with her for two days... On saturday we explored the old slavic capital...


View from top of castle...


Shoes.. next to the 'Shoemakers Bridge'...



This is called a moving cake - a slovenian delicacy consisting of layers of pastry, apple, poppy seeds, walnuts and cream cheese.. needless to say it wasn't the nicest thing I have ever eaten!!


On sunday, we took a trip to the beautiful Lake Bled


View as we tripped...




The famous Lake Bled



Jasna, Me, Helena enjoying the spectacular views at Lake Bled...




After a lovely weekend tripping, we managed to squeeze in some time in my home city of Klagenfurt, paying a visit to 'Minimundus', a theme park where you can find some of the worlds most famous landmarks... just on a tiny scale!



Hollywood or Klagenfurt?!



Summer seems like it has finally well and truly arrived here in Austria. It feels so strange to think just 3 months ago I arrived here to temperatures of -10 degrees and snow up to my waist! I'm definitely going to make the most of this beautiful weather before it's time to say Aufwiedersehen once again... but this time, it will be for good!
