Croatia: Green Green Grass

In Spring, grass grown like crazy, so it i necessary to cut it from time to time. Nada, Bronco and me decided to drive to our weekend house in Croatia and do that. After late lunch, we arrived and we immediately did all the needed work, so that we will be able to enjoy for the next three days.

 

After lunch we did a little bit of work.

Job done.

Austria: Cycling around Vrbsko jezero

After a few years, we decided to attend an even called "Wörthersee car-free 2024". This was the 27th edition, where the road around the Lake Vrbsko jezero is closed for motorized vehicles and opens for man powered transportation devices. Since the 40 km loop is relatively short, I simply started cycling from home and in Celovec I waited for others. Then we made a circle together with a beer at the end.

My previous Vrbsko jezero tours: 2013 - 12400, 2014 - 12904, 2016 - 13485.

In case if we lose someone, we made a group photo at the start: Nada, Rokly, Helena, Tuši and Badžo.

Half way.

Slovenia: Elly and Bronco

Bronco and me did a walk through our village and we stopped at Skoki's place for a beer. Since Bronco is still to young to have one, he played with Elly.

Slovenia: Roblekov dom

Bronco and me had a men's day out in the mountains and our goal was to go to Roblekov dom na Begunjščici mountain hut. We drove to Završnica valley and from there we hiked straight to the hut. It was quite steep, but we managed, especially Bronco didn't have any issues. For the return, we chose a little different path, that was easier.

We chose our own way to the hut.

Straight up.

Bronco is always quicker than me.

The hut is situated on the southern slopes of Begunjščica, above the town of Begunje na Gorenjskem.

The way back was easier and marked.

Slovenia: MTB - Prelaz Ljubelj

After the long Saturday, Nada and me decided to do a little bit of mountain biking. Nearby Prelaz Ljubelj is always a good choice. The way back to the valley was much harder this time because my finger, which Bronco dislocated during yesterday's walk, hurt a lot. Even Nada was much faster - Garmin Connect.
