On Our Way to Slovenia 16 Jun 09

This morning we packed up for the millionth time and headed off to Slovenia for a couple of weeks. We stayed on the autostrade all day. The toll was €27.60 when we crossed the Italy-Slovenia border at 3 o’clock. The drive was long and uneventful with the usual heavy haulage trucks bumper to bumper.

We haven't booked any accommodation. We'll stay with some cousins for a few days. It’s nice being with people. It gets a bit lonely being on our own all the time.

We wouldn’t normally stay with rellies because it’s hard staying in someone else’s house especially because there’s four of us and we’re noisy and make a lot of mess in a short time. Also I don’t want to be rousing on the kids every minute about picking up their stuff all the time. But, like I said, a few days should be ok.
