Fall break in Ljubljana, Bled, and Vienna

This past week, me and a few friends traveled to Ljubljana, Slovenia (just south of Austria) for Fall Break. It was a great time to get away, relax and enjoy the scenery outside of Prague. Ljubljana is the capitol of Slovenia and a fairly pretty city. It is very small, maybe the size of Norman. It isn't as touristy and it is just a very quaint and beautiful place to go and relax. Everything is very slow and relaxing. Here is a picture of the Ljubjanica River which runs through the heart of Ljubljana. Here is a picture of one of the main squares in Ljubljana at night time. The night life was just a fun thing to see. Not huge crowds of dunkards or anything of the sort. Just people mozying around enjoyin the night's air
Here in Ljublana is the remains of an old Roman wall built back in 14 A.D. by the great Caesar Augustus.
One of the greatest things in Ljubljana and probably the cornerstone of the city is the great castle on top of the hill just above the main city. From here they could see for kilometers as to know of there were invaders coming. The day we were here it was a little foggy, but as you can see, you can see the entire city. I am on top of the main tower with the castle courtyard in the background.
