...it's not always a nice adventure though.

I wasn't really sure whether I'd write anything about this past weekend at all. Then I decided that this weekend was quite an adventure, even if it wasn't a nice one.

Friday night. Katja was on call and two couchsurfers were staying at our place. Since it was their last night in Ljubljana they invited me to join them for a drink in our couchsurfing room. A typical summer storm was obviously coming, a bit of thunder and lightning, a quick shower, nothing out of the ordinary. We didn't realise that the clowns who are converting our attic into flats have done something wrong again...

Next thing I know the water was pouring from the ceiling of our guest room. I ran to see whether there was leakage anywhere else. And of course it was. Another waterfall from the ceiling in the living room. We spent next half hour runing around trying to get at least some of the water into buckets.

Luckily the shower was over soon enough, but Marii and Nick ended up sleeping on mattresses in the dining room. I'm sure this was one of the worst couchsurfing experiences ever!

Below are two of the pics I took for the insurance company on Friday night.

 
 
Still there was an upside to all of this. On Saturday morning we had a nice breakfast together and all of a sudden Nick (the Australian half of the couchsurfing duo) produced a jar of vegemite from his backpack. So we finally had a taste of this infamous Australian food. Supposedly I'm one of the few non-Australians who genuinely liked it. :)
