Exploring Ljubljana, Part 2
Slovenia's capital, Ljubljana is a mid-sized city. Given its size, its sights and attractions can be seen, visited, and explored within a short period of time. Luckily for us, we were here for three days giving us the chance to likewise squeeze in an excursion to Lake Bled on our third day.
