 Snow! and mountains! and stunning vistas! |
 Dobrovo Castle |
 This, again, summarizes Slovenia for us |
 On Easter Sunday, we meandered through Slovenia and northern Italy, and this tiny church with a majestic entrance caught our eye |
 Here is the church itself – absolutely tiny |
 Old walls, somewhere in western Slovenia/northern Italy |
 Having spotted a castle high on a hillside, we drove to see it on a whim |
 It has gone through many iterations over the years, from a true fortified castle to a Nazi encampment |
 It's a meli-melange of styles, and while much is destroyed enough is left to get a feel for the castle itself |
 This is inside the central tower, which is freestanding |
 Bits are quite sad looking… |
 … And other parts are gloriously castle-like |
 This must have been the old chapel |
 Looking out from the ramparts, having climbed a rusty staircase which definitely wouldn't meet North American safety standards |
 The castle from where we left the Audi |
