Gaz is a girl

Well... a few things to report from Slovenia (not Slovakia, like I originally wrote). We've had two relatively late nights out on the town, though there's not really much "town" to see... lots and lots of restaurants and quiet bars, but no partaaaaying going on anywhere.

Gay* managed to pull the fit barmaid last night and went out for a drink with her, but was snubbed for a goodnight kiss (haha). I'm sure he'll have much more to report on here than he did to us ;) I'll leave AK to tell the extension to this story about the English guys we overheard last night... ;)

I ate a horse steak, or more specifically a foal steak for lunch yesterday, which tasted like a well done beef steak, just a bit more tender. We also passed a place that sold "Horse Burgers". I'm not entirely sure if this is all ethical, but when in Rome... eat like the Slovenians =]

AK and I managed to get accosted by "Dave", a random Scottish dude who hadn't slept for 32 hours and hadn't seen his dad for 10 years. So they decided to come here to go for a 6 day bike ride over the alps. Stupid prats. I mean... if you hadn't seen your dad for that long, you'd go for a piss up with him, or catch up at home or something wouldn't you? Not kill yourself by riding uphill for 12 hours.

The rooms here are OK, albeit a bit small - especially when AK and I are in them together. I've nearly broken my back each morning / night getting in and out of the bunk beds, that I'm convinced are made for actual midgets. Being massive, it seems, has downsides too...

Today we leave for Innsbruck, Austria. I may just have got a country / place name / spelling correct for the first time since we set off... I just did a bit of wee.




* Sorry, I meant Gaz, the big girl.
