We drove to Zagreb where we would drop off the car at the airport. We made a quick stop at Slunj (pronounced Sloon). We chose to visit an old mill connected to waterfalls and showing the life in the 1800’s. It took us about a half an hour to walk through and totally not worth the 9 euro entrance fee. Oh well.
Because of our time difference, Kristen had sent us a zoom link to her Sunday evening musical devotional. We found the link just in time to watch the second half of the fireside and just before her musical number with the other missionaries.
It was a nice moment on the Sabbath.
We sadly had lunch at Burger King along our way to Zagreb. It was…meh. I don’t even remember the last time I ate at Burger King in Colorado!
We finally reached the airport, dropped off the car, and found our Uber to Zagreb. Zagreb was underwhelming. We left our luggage at the Left Luggage area at the bus station and then took a bus to what we thought was downtown and walked around trying to find something memorable.
We weren’t sad to return to the bus station to continue on our way to Slovenia.
I bought some apples and cucumbers from a street vendor for 2 euro.
We got in line for our bus. After 15 to 20 minutes, we were starting to wonder if we were in the right line for our bus. The bus was late. I asked the girl standing next to me if this was the bus to Ljubljana, just to confirm. The bus finally arrived 30 minutes late.
Not a surprise when we were one hour into our two-hour ride and the driver stopped for everyone to have a smoke break.
We finally arrived in Ljubljana and were happy for our ten-minute walk to our hotel at Eurostars U Hotel.
It was late when we finally went out looking for dinner. We found a restaurant called TACOS that was busy. Sadly, when we went to order we were told the kitchen was closed and out of food.
We ended up at another place along the canal called Breg. Chris ordered monk fish and I had soup.
