If the weather at home isn't exactly conjuring up a golden October, you can always escape to the south. Trieste is just a stone's throw away, 2 hours away. And the sun has once again given it its all. ☀️

Slovenia Transit went great. Clouds with showers were ideal weather for driving without getting grilled and Trieste was waiting in bright sunshine ☀️

A huge cruise ship was moored in the harbor like a "skyscraper": MSC Splendida.

And the accommodation for the next two nights is a real stroke of luck 🍀: Domo Premium Apartments - Trieste Mazzini.
