Back from hols

It's nice to be home =) Although, I kind of thought summer was going to arrive in England while I was away, but it appears that is not the case. It's still miserable, rainy, and not very warm, but never mind. At least I can do laundry and shower without shoes on now.

Here's a few random travel tips from my experiences:

~ Don't fly from London Stansted airport. This is the most badly organized airport I've ever been to, and I've been to quite a few.

~ How to find your way in Slovenia: Open up a map. Try to look as lost and confused as possible. Some very nice Slovenian will immediately stop and give you directions.

~ Venice: visit Burano! It rocks, and you can easily lose the crowds there. But go to the toilet before you go, cause the one on the island is ridiculously hard to find.

~ People watching by the rain in the main square in Ljubljana is the best! Every town should have it's own rain cloud.

~ Solitaire does not work on trains or on park benches!

~ If you go to Croatia, give Zagreb a miss. If you have to change trains there, stand in front of the station and look at the squares ahead of you- it looks nice from there. Don't bother exploring any further, you'll just get depressed.

Will try to post more about the trip later, but I gotta start that laundry now. And buy milk- I'm desperate for a proper cuppa.
