Continuation from Budapest
Day 14 (Thursday, September 18th 2008)
After leaving Budapest, I eventually made my way to Ljubljana, Slovenia, finally arriving in the city around 22:00. From the train station, I had a 15 minute walk to Hotel Emonec, where I was staying for two nights. The hotel was conveniently right in the center of town. My room was extremely modern and plain, but clean and of a decent price (77 Euros; about $112) so it worked just fine for me. The only downfall was that the hotel was located close to a nightclub, so I heard loud music thumping throughout the night.

Day 15 (Friday, September 19th 2008)
I awoke to a chilly but sunny day in Ljubljana, which was my first glimpse of sunshine in five days! After eating breakfast at my hotel, I left and walked to the nearby tourist office where I purchased a ticket for a two hour walking tour. The tour is put on by guides from the tourist information office and costs 10 Euros. I met my guide in front of the Town Hall around the corner from the Triple Bridge. The guide took the group all over the central core of Ljubljana, including a trip up to the castle via a funicular ride. I also saw other landmarks such as the gorgeous interior of the Cathedral of St. Nicholas and several of the numerous bridges and squares that can be found throughout the city. The guide provided lots of interesting and informational commentary as he walked the group through the beautiful streets of the Ljubljana.
