However we remembered on the drive that our guide book read somthing about great caves on the way in southern Slovenia. So after a quick look at the book we made a detour! And just in time for the last tour according to the book. Well, did I mention that the book was rather old? Gates closed! We trodded off and looked for a spot to stay the night. Coming through a small nearby village we found, of course, a closed camping ground. Mark talked to a man walking around town and luckly it was the owner of the camping grounds. So he opend the gate for us and we could even stay for free! We were quite happy since the temperature was a warm 15\u00b0C, so no heater needed. However our luck changed again and in the middle of the night the temperature plummeted down to 2\u00b0C with plenty of snowfall. The next day the caves were a nice constant 12\u00b0C throughout and we had plenty of time to warm up again and lots of excercise walking the long paths within. These caves are truely breathtaking and our pictures don&#8217;t reflect this in the least, since taking pictures was not wanted due to group security. So we had to make them quick and hidden, too bad for this great photo opportunity. In the evening we then finally reached the ocean, Dine&#8217;s birthday present \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n<p>\ud83d\ude91&#8230;.<\/p>\n<p>Wir wollten nun endlich ans Meer &#8211; zu Dines Geburtstag! Doch einen Tag zuvor fiel uns auf dem Weg zum Meer ein, dass wir im Reisef\u00fchrer von den gro\u00dfen H\u00f6hlen, den Skocjan Caves, im S\u00fcden Solweniens gelesen hatten. Also musste es doch noch ein Umweg sein! Wir waren p\u00fcnktlich zur letzten F\u00fchrung vor Ort, aber leider ist unser Lonely Planet etwas \u00e4lteren Datums&#8230; Die H\u00f6hlen hatten bei unserer Ankunft schon geschlossen, also suchten wir noch ein Pl\u00e4tzchen f\u00fcr die Nacht. Im Tal des n\u00e4chsten Dorfes fanden wir mal wieder einen geschlossener Campingplatz. Mark sprach einen Spazierg\u00e4nger mit Hund an, der sich zuf\u00e4llig als der Campingplatzbesitzer herausstellte. Volltreffer! Er \u00f6ffnete f\u00fcr uns das Tor und wir durften eine kostenlose Nacht auf seiner Wiese verbringen \ud83d\ude42 \u00dcber Nacht fiel Schnee und die Temperatur sank von 15 Grad am Abend auf 2 Grad am Morgen. Zum Gl\u00fcck erwarteten uns in der H\u00f6hle angenehme konstante 12 Grad zum Aufw\u00e4rmen! Diese H\u00f6hlen waren wirlich atemberaubend sch\u00f6n und unsere H\u00f6hlenbilder geben das nicht im mindesten wieder, denn das Photographieren wurde nur ungern gesehen, weil die Gruppe sonst nicht beisammen bleibt. Also mussten in der Dunkelheit schnelle Photos gemacht werden, sehr schade f\u00fcr die tollen Motive! Am Abend noch erreichen wir das Meer &#8211; Dines Geburtagsgeschenk \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n<div class=\"tiled-gallery type-rectangular tiled-gallery-unresized\" data-original-width=\"500\" data-carousel-extra='{&quot;blog_id&quot;:1,&quot;permalink&quot;:&quot;http:\\\/\\\/myblueocean.org\\\/mainpage\\\/index.php\\\/2017\\\/11\\\/27\\\/skocjan-caves\\\/&quot;,&quot;likes_blog_id&quot;:109311216}' itemscope itemtype=\"http:\/\/schema.org\/ImageGallery\" > <div class=\"gallery-row\" style=\"width: 500px; height: 231px;\" data-original-width=\"500\" data-original-height=\"231\" > <div class=\"gallery-group images-1\" style=\"width: 345px; height: 231px;\" data-original-width=\"345\" data-original-height=\"231\" > <div class=\"tiled-gallery-item tiled-gallery-item-large\" itemprop=\"associatedMedia\" itemscope itemtype=\"http:\/\/schema.org\/ImageObject\"> <a href=\"http:\/\/myblueocean.org\/mainpage\/18-1\/\" border=\"0\" itemprop=\"url\"> <meta itemprop=\"width\" content=\"341\"> <meta itemprop=\"height\" content=\"227\"> <img decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"1275\" data-orig-file=\"http:\/\/myblueocean.org\/mainpage\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/18-1.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"1024,683\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"Skocjan Caves\" data-image-description=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/myblueocean.org\/mainpage\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/18-1.jpg?fit=300%2C200\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/myblueocean.org\/mainpage\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/18-1.jpg?fit=1024%2C683\" data-src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/myblueocean.org\/mainpage\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/18-1.jpg?w=341&#038;h=227\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/myblueocean.org\/mainpage\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/18-1.jpg?w=1024 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/myblueocean.org\/mainpage\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/18-1.jpg?resize=300%2C200 300w\" width=\"341\" height=\"227\" data-original-width=\"341\" data-original-height=\"227\" itemprop=\"http:\/\/schema.org\/image\" title=\"Skocjan Caves\" alt=\"The Rivers flowing through the mountains seem to reflect the current fashion color of the textile industry, however this color is all natural!
