Lake Bled and Bohinj, Slovenia






This morning started off with a bang, canyoning at Lake Bled. For those of you unfamiliar with canyoning (as we were), it is traversing and traveling down a canyon by repelling, jumping into freezing cold pools, and sliding down natural water slides.  The water temperature was 5-10 degrees Celsius and the highest jump was 30 feet.  It was awesome.





Our next stop on the tour was a short bus ride to Lake Bohinj and the town of Ribcev Laz.  We rented bikes to tour the area and climbed up to view a 40 meter
 waterfall.  The area around the lake is truly stunning and the weather could not have been better.  Oh yes, and how could I forget the cheese.  This area is renowned for its dairy and specifically its cheese 
makers.  As we are fans of cheese ourselves we just had to find a local restaurant to sample the goods.  We were not disappointed!  Oh so good!  Until next time.
