sLOVEnia – Varpolje

Green, mountains, rivers, outdoor and adventure are words that to me describe Slovenia best. After a drive that took 3 (!) days in the end, we arrived at our first campsite in Varpolje. It was really warm and we were really lazy. More than we liked really, but I guess we needed it…

However:

We laughed.
We swam.
We did our laundry.
We walked to the bakery for delicious fresh bread every morning. With a stunning view.
We were a little more lazy.
We foraged the river Savinja. A lot. Mostly for pretty, grlue stones and rusty things.
We played games.
We drank tea. A lot. And devoured soup. A lot too. With that heat.
We were lazy again.
We ate marshmallows at sticks we found in the forest first.
But also walked up the mountain. After first using the cable car and chairlift :-)
We visited the pretty city Maribor on a rainy day and loved it.
We used it as a playground and had humongous ice creams.
We lit a candle for someone very special. And we saw churches through the eyes of our children. So fresh.
Then we drove to Italy for a dip in the sea. To later continue to our new destination…

 

Boys, boys, boys – July 2016

July was a month in which a large part of our summer holiday fell. A holiday we all needed. A lot. The weeks before we all became quieter and more tired. So not so many photo’s for the month of July. But there are a few ones I would like to share. We visited Paleis Soestdijk, school holidays started, heads were shaven, we went to the beach in Wassenaar, played at home, went on holiday, visited Paris once more, ate ice cream (a lot!) and had quite some sunny days <3.
