Monday morning, July 17th, we headed out to Ljubljana, Slovenia with Elder & Sister Mayberry to conduct our first audit. A beautiful day for a drive and fun friends to spend time with.
Just over the Slovenia border we stopped at an old castle that has not been restored, Castle Borl. It was used in years past as home to royalty and during world wars as a prison. It has been taken over by the Slovenia preservation committee and will one day be restored.
It was fascinating to think, that if we had been teenagers, one evening, we would probably be crawling under the fence and peaking through all the rooms.
Arriving at Ljubljana, we found parking and did a walking tour of the city. The whole city is watched over by a large hill hosting an old castle on top. 
The Ljubljanica River travels through the center of town with multiple walking bridges crossing over. The streets are lined with unique small shops, tourist carts, ice cream shops, and cafes and restaurants.
Small water taxis or cruise ships travel up and down the river giving tourists a guided tour of the city.
We met up with senior missionaries, Elder & Sister Monson and the six of us had dinner at a little restaurant overlooking one of the bridges.
The city was well kept and preserved with it's natural old buildings with their hundreds of years of history.
I'm afraid we are done in!
