Lost in Slovenia
I started the European Peace Walk this morning from Lenti, Hungary. Within a couple of hours we were lost. The trail guide can be difficult and doesn’t always match up with the red arrows, when there are arrows. A sit-down packs-off confab with the guide, maps.me, and a compass resolved it and we got back on track. (Note: we also got lost in Hungary and Croatia.)
The night before we bathed in the thermal baths and had a fabulous dinner. Then breakfast at the classy, small, friendly Hotel Denis in Lintl got us off to a good start.
My companions are Tyler (Eugene Oregon) and Michelle (Calgary Alberta). We all met on the Le Puy Camino in France last fall.
We had this traditional Slovenian fry bread for lunch with a glass of local Chardonnay. The bread is topped with garlic &butter and pumpkin oil & cheese. I got a history lesson from the cookWe walked right along the Hungarian/Slovenian border. The scenery was continuously beautiful.
Nice, Robert!!! That fry bread looks very nourishing!! So is the lodging situation similar to Camino albergues?
I am happy to report I have officially started breaking in my boots for El Camino-
Be safe and have fun
