2026-09-23 Walking along the river in Ljubljana
===============================================

We just started walking until we got to the botanical garden, then we
turned around and drank coffee and ate cake at Špica, watching the
boats tucker by. On the way back we took a detour up to the castle.
It's a weird mix of old and new, old stone walls, struts and braces,
steel columns and stairs, restaurants, chapel, a pit for noble
prisoners in medieval times, cells for prisoners in early modern
times, and so on. We just took a look at the free stuff and left
again. We were tired and looking forward to the hotel.

Claudia and I under some weeping willows. Claudia standing on a
bridge overlooking green shores. I’m standing in a glass house
surrounded by tropical plants. Claudia in the same glass house. In
the shadows under a tree is a small field with hundreds of colchicum
autumnale in bloom. Me eating Kremšnita. Claudia at the very tip
where the two arms of the Ljubljanica meet again, taking a picture. A
portrait of Claudia in the sun, smiling. The sun and the trees
reflecting in the river. Me on the shore, on a paved path along the
river, with a tree breaking through the concrete embankment. Claudia
on the walls of the city castle, with the sun in her eyes.
