Slovenia

Here are some photos from our weekend in Slovenia. We flew from London City Airport - which is great, really small and easy to get to - into Zurich. Spent the night in Zurich and flew to Ljubljana in the morning. We had all day Saturday and Sunday in Slovenia, drove up to the beautiful Lake Bled on Sunday (about an hour on a bus), then flew back through Zurich, getting to London early Monday morning. Ljubljana is absolutely beautiful. Great mountains in the background, really pretty architecture, surprisingly good food, and really empty! Not your normal crowded tourist destination. We highly recommend it!

All of the pics are up on Flickr, but here are just a few. And a great place to find out that we're having a little boy :)

On our way up to the castle for "The Big Reveal!"
