Slovenia

And then, en route to Slovenia which is only 30 km from Zagreb and its capital Ljubljana . A tiny country, smaller than the Britain and covered with small houses, all colored in green hills always very well maintained.
Again a small town, but very charming. There are two Quebequois we met in Zagreb . It's always a pleasure to talk with them and read their expressions ...

On our way to Italy , we stop at Postojna Cave in a 5 km long, created a few million years. A small train ride and we are at the heart of the earth to discover stalactites and stalagmites in the thousands. They were formed slowly over time or rather over the drops of water that settle some minute particles of limestone every time and no more than an inch every 10 years is to say .. .
Here we encounter Fortunately or unfortunately I do not know what to say, two Nantais. They invite us to taste a bottle muscadet after the visit. They are volunteers, but are fed / housed by the association WWOOF . The idea is to go help in the farms of farmers worldwide who want and need a little hand. It can go from farm to farm in the same time discovering the cultures of the country, people who live there, and give some time for a good cause rather than staying at home doing nothing ...
fortunately I was saying that, thanks to them they have can be avoided drown in our tent for the night where they were encountered, we had to sleep near a river. It has rained so that night that the water rose to over 3 m above normal, yes it is!
And unfortunately, because of the Bretons who encounter Nantais, it hurts the liver ... This good old
young farmer of 65 who left every morning at school to learn his new trade, was surprised two days later to see us still there in the evening because the deluge would not stop ... Anyway thank you to them. And he, with whom we spent a great night, a source of knowledge and great humor. He has assured us before we go on saying that there were only 700 bears were lying in the region ...
