ABOUT THIS WEBLOG

The purpose of my trip was to take up an invitation to spend a week with best mate of 43 years, also from Melbourne, who owns a modest apartment in the Slovenian coastal town of Piran, on the Adriatic Coast.

My trip was from July 18 to August 11 2016, starting and finishing at Melbourne's international airport. The Slovenian segment was from July 29 to August 6, which took us through some of Western Slovenia's spectacular alpine scenery.

The European part of my trip commenced in Milan (Italy) whence I travelled by train through to Trieste, on the Slovenian border.

After leaving Slovenia, I travelled from Ljubljana through to Vienna, where I spent a few days, before flying back to Melbourne.

ITALY - Gardaland Theme Park (Brechia)

 
Pix of July 24 2016.

Gardaland is an amusement park located in North-Eastern Italy. Opened 19 July 1975, the complex includes Gardaland, Gardaland Sea-Life, and the Gardaland Hotel. It is adjacent to Lake Garda, but does not actually face the water. 

The nearest railway station is Brechia, near Verona, whence a free bus transports visitors to the Park

The entire complex covers an area of 445,000 m², while the theme park alone measures 200,000 m². 

Sporting both traditional attractions and entertainment shows, it attracts nearly 3 million visitors every year.

The complete set of images of this visit may be viewed at the embedded Photobucket album!
