Lake Bled - Slovenia

Lake Bled is one of our favorite places on the planet. And you should have seen the drive on the way to Slovenia. I think we lost count at 15 castles on the hills.

The three kiddos in our apartment while we were watching the World Cup soccer match between the US and Slovenia. What are the odds that we would be IN Slovenia for the US/Slovenia soccer match? When there was a goal, it sounded like the whole country exploded! Amazing!

Pregnant, again. When are we going to stop?

Dylan, of course LOOOVES boat rides. We had to row across the lake to the Island where there is a huge church.

Doesn't it remind you a little of Colorado? Maybe that's why we love it so much.

Gratuitous pony ride around the lawn. Over priced, but fun for the kids. I now count 3 times that we have visited a city in Europe and the kids took a ride on a horse or a pony. Whatever keeps them walking.

Our German group. They loved our kids and kept trying to talk to them as if they understood.
The funny thing, Dylan would actually respond and had a funny conversation with a nice old lady that I am sure went something like this:

Old Lady: Aren't you the cutest little boy?
Dylan: Yea. This boat is huge!
Old Lady: How old are you?
Dylan: Did you see that duck fly super close to our boat?
Old Lady: You have a big family. Are you excited to have another baby? (Pointing to my prego belly)
Dylan: I think we will get there to the Island soon. That guy rowing has big muscles.

Haley was okay with the boat only if her brother wasn't jumping up and down trying to rock it. Then she would give me this look and say, "See? I told you this was a bad idea!"

The three Chapman girls.
If only my boobs were this big after I have my baby too.

We recommend Lake Bled, Slovenia and think it's an adorable get a way and very family friendly.

Oh, did I mention the Lake Bled cake is TO DIE FOR? Well, it is. Come back just for that if you wish. We just might.
