We left New Point with no results, just a notice that our test results are pending. So we left anyway on Thursday, September 16, hoping we would receive a negative test result before we needed to show it. Fingers crossed!
Watching the rain from the Lufthansa Lounge at Dulles
We made it to Dulles (IAD) on time and without any issues. It was starting to sprinkle as we taxied out onto the runway in Richmond. Our flight from IAD to Frankfort had a delayed departure from 5:55 pm until 7:00. Since we are flying business class, we get to take advantage of the layover at Dulles in the Lufthansa Lounge. So how bad can it be?
View from our balcony. at. Lake Bled
Therefore we were booked on a later flight from , to so we arrived in Slovenia at 1:30 pm, transferred to Lake Bled and our resort Rikli Balance Hotel, with a balcony overlooking Lake Bled.
So we spent the last 18 hours traveling or waiting in the airports. By the way, our negative results for our PCR tests came through from CVS early Friday morning (about 2:30 AM). And, when we arrived in Slovenia, the immigration police only asked for our passports and proof of Covid vaccinations. Go figure!
We have a group dinner tonight but not until 6:45 pm. We’re staying awake to try to adjust our bodies’ internal clocks! Naturally, we’ll shower and change out of travel clothes. before we join the others.

Pretty modern, don’t you think?
n Bled, people come for the landscape and stay for the cake. Cream cake (kremna rezina) to be specific. Lighter-than-air puff pastry floats atop vanilla whipped cream and a custard pastry cream, each slice trimmed to a perfect square. Dating back to the days of the Hapsburgs, there are versions all over the former Austro-Hungarian Empire, but the Slovenians argue theirs is fluffier and creamer than their neighbors. Even more, they say the perfect renditions are found only in Bled. When the nation granted the dish protected origin status, it agreed; the designation only applies to kremna rezina made in this scenic city (where it was first made by Chef IÅ¡tvan LukaÄević). Happily for you, to make it at home the way they do on the shores of Lake Bled, you need fewer than a dozen ingredients.
Dinner tonight was at the Kavarna Park which. is a restaurant and cafe, well known for their homemade ice cream and Slovenien Lake Bled Cream Cake or Kremna  rezina affectionally known as Kremsnita! Both Pat and I chose the fish for the evening. Pat because she prefers fish, and I was being good. In hindsight, I should have chosen the meat to get to try both. However, fellow diners were willing to share especially towards the end when all were stuffed to the gills. We began the meal with a salmon pate with a salad.
