Kruplivnik - Moravske Toplice

A good night's sleep and we are ready to go. Again we go for the longer cycling option, 50km. The route will start off downhill then mostly flat and then undulating. Starts great and then the we hit the wind. 50/50,  so most of the day is spent riding into the wind. Two hours into the ride we decide that we will stop at the next town, which turns out to be around the corner. A cold beer and then we are back at it. Some of the undulations turn out really to be hills. The GPS once again delivers us to the doorstep of our hotel. A short rest and shower, time for lunch/dinner. Paul had warned us about the large portions, and he was not kidding. I barely put a dent in the plate of pasta. When the owner came by (he didn't speak English) but we explained that it was good, but just too much and we were full. He proudly stuck out and rubbed his belly. We all laughed, and then came the schnapps. This stuff made my toes curl, wow. Decided to walk down to the thermal pools. Paul says 2km away, Google maps tell me 4.5km (trust Google maps). Terme 3000 is a large complex. They have some great waterslides; I was planning in trying the kamakazi. Unfortunately the bigger slides are closed this evening, but the one that is open is awesome. Early night for us.

  1. Ah, the old 'rolling hills' issue, eh???? LOL Read the last post (wasn't up when I turned off my computer early yesterday), so all caught up (and we had Jack's e-mail version of the "Big Boss" and his 'cognac'!! Oh, and tell Jack his rendition of the sauna had us in stitches!!!

    So, what's the warning sign? Ferrets?
