We left the rainy Ljubljana and drove to lake Bled. It was snowing in Bled and we went to the Bled castle which is on top of the hill. It was first snow in Bled this winter and has made the scenery different, as we had winter wonderland now. We had a dinner reservation in the castle restaurant so we could go in without paying the entrance fee. walked around in the castle then ate 4 courses dinner at the castle restaurant. The next attraction you must see around lake Bled, except the gorgeous lake is the cute church on the little island on the lake. We went there the next morning, after another snow evening, by rowing boat, pletna. Pletna is about 7 m long and 2 m wide wooden boat. The pletnar is standing and rowing, which is quite heavy, I know it, as I tried it. In the church, there is a wishing bell, we can try to ring it 3x and make a wish. We came back from the island, packed our car then drove around the lake by car to take some pictures before heading to Bohinj lake.
We went straight to the water fall, savica and we climbed the stars in the snow groud with the sticks. Coming back from the water fall, we just enjoyed this gorgeous lake Bohinj with the church, bridge, mountains around it from the water side or from a bit above after riding a gondola in Vogel (1575 m). Vogel is actually a ski area and unfortunately, we could not really see the whole lake, as some part of the are were covered of thick snow.
