ADVENTURES, CHALLENGES, AND INSIGHTS OF A COUPLE IN EARLY RETIREMENT
After Trieste and our day in Venice, we made our way to Bologna for the food. Many people we have met on our travels have mentioned how lovely Bologna Italy is and how much there is to do in the area. Hearing about a place from multiple people is a good enough reason for us to venture there.
We have been traveling for more than three years now and we have learned a lot about how to make ourselves comfortable wherever we go. Our arrival activities have increased over time as we’ve learned what makes us comfortable.
Next stop, Trieste. Our European train trip took us from Ljubljana to Trieste. and then on to Bologna through Venice. We decided to spend a few nights in Trieste because we had never been there and it broke up the long train rides.
Ljubljana (loo·blee·aa·nuh) Slovenia is a hidden gem in Europe. We decided to visit because we were trying to break up our train ride from Zagreb to Bologna. We were not disappointed.
Our Croatian cruise ended in the coastal town of Split, so we spent a few days there enjoying the ancient port before moving on. Apparently, all the trains from Split go through Zagreb, so did we.
