Our flexible schedule has
proved invaluable recently as we've had to adjust our travel plans a
couple times. We left Rome on Wednesday, planning to stop in Venice for
about 5 hours, take a canal cruise, and see St. mark's square.
Unfortunately, the bus we wanted to take to Slovenia was all booked.
Our only option for getting to Ljubljana, Slovenia that night was to
take a series of trains and forgo our Venice excursion, so we settled
for a view of the grand canal from the train station.

Our
plan in Slovenia was to spend a four days there, with two days devoted
to climbing Triglav, Slovenia's highest peak and national symbol. The
president of Slovenia has even declared that every Slovenian citizen
should make a point to climb Triglav so we thought it would be fun. Then we were going to take it
easy at a Croatian beach for a couple days. However, after just
spending 4 days walking around in the heat of Rome, we really didn't
want to climb a mountain, or go to a warm beach! Instead, we scratched
Triglav and Croatia. We still stayed in Slovenia for a couple days, but
this extra time allowed us to enjoy Ljubljana a bit more, add some
slack to our schedule, and most importantly, add Krakow, Poland back
into our schedule!
