Is this a first?

Here in Slovenia they love a bit of paperwork. Today David needed to use the public toilets in Novo Mesto - charge was 30 cents and he was given a handwritten receipt!

Could he possibly have done with it on the way in!!??

Hope he wasnt in desperate need of the facilities

Was the €0.30 for a No. 1 or No. 2, and is there a reduced rate for both?

We need to know

How many squares of loo paper come with it?

I assumed he was given the receipt on the way out, but will have to ask him to be sure. At the moment he is out walking the dog - in a rural area, so a bush will suffice this time.

I did ask him that, and he thinks it would be 30 cents regardless of what you did in there!

I don’t believe it was limited, but he probably washed his hands twice and stuffed some paper towels in his pocket to make sure he got his money’s worth.

We came into Slovenia from Croatia back in mid-March - and were only required to show our passports, no Covid paperwork needed. If you’re coming in from a Schengen country there is no border to stop at anyway, so no checks that we’re aware of. Enjoy Slovenia - it’s a lovely country.

Thanks, I’ve got about 3-4 night to kill on way to plitvice lakes and will be coming in via either the wurzenpass or the loiblpass
Any good places other than Bled (been there)?

Bizarrely, as we’ve been here so long, we haven’t actually visited many tourist locations in Slovenia. This is because we’re buying a house here and the above mentioned love of paperwork makes it a lengthy process.

However, we loved exploring Predjama Castle and learning the story of its robber baron owner. This is near Postojna where there is also the famous show cave with an underground train. In that neck of the woods is also the Technical Museum at Borovnica, which is well worth a visit. If you are interested in military history there is the museum at Pivka. This has a motorhome parking area that we used as a base for a while - 10€ a night with 16A hook-up and one free ticket to the museum. The little town of Pivka itself is unremarkable (being kind here!) but there are nice walks in the nearby Krajinski Nature Park.

Hope this helps!
