Day 8 in bled!

... But not yet ready for. Bed.

Apologies for TW sparred postings. I've had some weird iPhone problems with the ninjas stealing all the Internet and email. Will posture detailed relies in time.

For now I can report we are finally in bled. Alll safe and sound. It's been very hot - 37 deg. 70 km today but that includes a small diversion some of us did this morning. We found a ski lift to take us up to a downhill track. Turned out to be rarely used unmaintained DH from hell! Even the chicken runs were scarcely rideable. Case in point. Chicken run included a north shore section at times elevated to 3 m with missing planks. Black route had NS section that ended in mid air on a banked turn! Eventually we took an escape route down. Some swims en route and finally a train section into town. It's absolutely beautiful here as it was in bovec where we spent the last 2 days. Yesterday afternoon want rafting down the Soca river. Very cool but we were to cocky and anventurous and a rescue emergency had to play it self out. Guide got a serious bollocking out from the boss man.

Anyway it's been another frat adventure and will post more soon.

Sent from my eye phone.
