Strolling round lake Bled and up to the castle

Well the sun is shining and it's a glorious day so we've been for a walk round lake Bled today, it not a big lake and only takes about an hour and half to walk all the way around. It's very picturesque, with an island in the middle (the only island in Slovenia). Here are a couple of photos of the lake:



In the second photo above, you can probably make out the castle in the background. Here is the view from the top where it overlooks the lake:


Pretty impressive don't you think? We've just had some coffee and Slovenian cake and are heading back to the lake to hire a rowing boat so Jude can row me across to the island! LOL.
