I should hold a contest to see how many people can pronounce that name after seeing it for the first time!
I will help you: "Lube Lee Anna" there, ist that simple!
I'm still not sure I wasn't messing it up by the time we left.
Heres a link to what it says on Wikipedia about this place:
Wikipedia on Ljubljana
If you know who Rick Steves is he is the guy we get a lot of useful information from for our travels, mostly we research that before we get there. Rick states that Ljubljana is the next, next Prague. In other words its not the next Prague but the one right after that. If you don't know anything about Prague (we haven't been there yet either) it is a spectacular city with beautiful architecture and so much more. I can tell you Ljubljana did not disappoint.
Ahead of time reserved in a nice room which was like a 3rd floor apartment. It was the top level of the old building complete with two dormer windows.
Remember if you "click" on the pictures they will get larger.

| On arrival we find a note with our name taped to the wall. |
 |
| I guess thats for us? |
 |
| Inside was a full stainless steel kitchen. All very clean and nicely done. |
 |
| Through this gate is our courtyard to the front door. We stayed here for 4 nights & would come back. |
As usual when booking ahead Barb does thorough research checking the reviews online etc.
It is the best way to protect yourself. Barb nails it every time!

| Can you see the castle on the hill top. A beautiful view of the city - Slight fog today. |

| A popular "Beer & Burger Festival!" On the street in front of our home. |
 |
| I thought we had BIG burgers! |
 |
| One has to be careful & know what you are eating. Like Sicily they like horse meat. Let me be clear that's like eating a dog! I would never eat a horse! |

| Sometimes it doesn't matter how far away you get you just see something that feels like home. :( |
 |
| I think I have to agree with this one! |
