The two faces of Lake Bled - Part 1





We arrived in Slovenia and our first stop was Lake Bled. Variously described as ‘impossibly beautiful’ and ‘postcard perfect’, Lake Bled is a perfectly still lake sitting at the foot of Slovenia’s highest mountain peaks with a castle perched up on a hill and an island in the middle with a gorgeous Baroque church. Needless to say, we were quite excited. The only issue was that the dense and heavy cloud that had been following us for the past week or so seemed as thick and heavy as ever.

We had a very lazy morning before seeing the castle in the afternoon, hoping against hope that the cloud would clear the next day.
