Entering serious wine drinking territory today. Via prosperous looking villages and towns. Each village seemed to proudly present its Fire Station.
A shorter day, to spend some time in Ptuj which traces is origins back to the Romans. A military fort at a strategic crossing point of the River Drava. Today’s 18000 population rely on tourism and culture. Former European City of Culture 2012. What with that and and ploughing championships it’s all happened here.
It’s on a plain. To get there we went via Jerusalem, which was a bit surreal but offered lovely views. But no coffee as it’s a Monday. Just like home?
You get to realise how much you rely on good signal. Its poor in this otherwise lovely place. So I may return to today tomorrow as it were.
