Arrived in Kranj, Slovenia at 5:30 am on Saturday morning after a marathon train trip form Paris. Flew American Airlines to Paris from Chicago and they treated me quite nicely. My original plan was to travel to Munich but that didn't work out so I ended up with quite a bit more time on the train than I had hoped for. From Kranj I caught a bus and then a taxi to my final destination of Zelezniki. It is a very small town nestled in the mountains near several prime paragliding sites in the Slovenian Alps.
The weather here and throughout much of Europe has been rain and thunderstorms for quite some time and the pattern seems to be continuing. The organization is saying that things are improving so we are all hopeful that we can get flying soon. I'm staying in a nice b & b with a very friendly host. They serve an excellent breakfast and it's quite comfortable. I'm hoping Sue will be able to join me in a few days so that we can hike and have some adventures together.
I always try and schedule two comps back to back when I travel this far so that if the weather is bad for one it is almost always good for the other.... we shall see. I hope we get to fly soon because the area is quite gorgeous and I'd really like to see it from the sky!
I'm working on making a video from my Austrian and Turkey trips and I'm making progress.... slowly... it takes time to figure out the video editing software, etc.
