Phespirit goes to Slovenia
Bled     May/June 2000

LAKE BLED & BLEJSKI OTOK

Bled for beginners:

a pure blue lake;
a tiny island with baroque church;
a steep cliff with mediæval castle;
a pretty neo-gothic parish church;
Karavanke mountains for backdrop.

A place for eyes, heart and lungs.

THE LAD OF THE LAKE

Phespirit joins Mary Magdelene on Blejski Otok. But which one is the statue?

POSTOJNA CAVES

27km of caves, of which 5.7km are open to the public, of which about 4km are blazed through by an electric train.

Magnificent sinter formations encrust the ceilings, walls and floors throughout. This snap shows the 'macaroni' stalactites in the White Hall of the Brilliant Gallery.
