Ljubljana the next next Prague..

Yesterday, I left Dubrovnik at 4:55am to catch my 6:25am flight to Zagreb and from Zagreb..I am to hop on the train to Ljublana. I hopped on the 9:44am train from Zagreb arriving here a little after noon. Did I mention that the train ride was one of the most beautiful train rides I have ever been on? The country side was absolutely gorgeous!

I arrived at the hostel to check in..I have a bed in a 12 bed room for the first night and then a bed in one of the cells the next night. I am staying at Hostel Celica- a former prison turned hostel- pretty neat huh? I have never stayed in a 12 person room before so I was expecting the worst but surprisingly it was fine. There was a Danish couple, a pair of French gal, two Japanese guys who happened to be the noisiest of the bunch and then solo folks like myself.

Ljublana is a college town..and known to be the next next Prague

Ljublana is a college town..and known to be the next next Prague..Krakow being second in line. I can see it..Ljublana has a bridge,,Prague had a bridge. Ljublana has a castle..Prague has a castle. Ljublana has a river..Prague has a river but still IMHO..Ljublana does not hold a candle to Prague. Though it does have a cute atmosphere though not much in terms of sight seeing it is a good place to just take in the atmosphere! That have bike lanes painted ON THE SIDEWALK! How cool is that? City is full of university students running around and extremely cheap! I just had almond crusted chicken with potato wedges and a cola light for under bucks at a nice sit down place! Most people that I have encountered here spoke english so little language barrier! Definitely worth the visit!
